The EduGame project aims to improve teacher training in The Western Balkans and the South-Mediterranean by promoting game-based learning as a new pedagogical approach.

The goal of the project is to train highly qualified prospective school teachers in social sciences, humanities and IT in educational technologies using serious games to promote human rights, democracy, and social cohesion in two neighbouring regions with cultures and history of mutual influence. This will enhance the quality of student training in the six modernised BA and MA Programs. The purpose is to modernise teacher training curricula by incorporating a focus on serious games and game-based learning, to elaborate high-quality learning materials, and to equip EduGame labs by relying on innovative pedagogical approaches and advanced educational technologies.
