The PLCS Initiative for Peace

 Language classes, 26 sep 2024 - 14 okt 2024, NICOSIA, Cyprus

The Language Initiative for Peace named PLCS (Play, Learn, Create, Speak & Sing) takes place in our Foreign Language classes. The classes turn into workshops and game-based learning that make learning fun, indoors and outdoors. Students of all class levels gain language awareness, and a new perspective of languages as a vehicle for democracy and peace. The highlights of the interactive Foreign Language classes are: -an English language treasure hunt made up of a word puzzle, language recognition and general knowledge questions -Collaborative production of the song ‘The Voice of tomorrow’ https://suno.com/song/a7321584-0654-4761-94fa-99338b8c2b9d) about language and democracy using AI (sunno.com). Students came up with a set of instructions for AI based on genre, content, specific words to be included in the song related to values such as peace, democracy, unity, etc. -Discussions about languages in danger of extinction, the reasons and possible solutions to the problem, their revival and preservation of the languages -Competitions via online quizzes in English and French -play of the traditional Cypriot game “Mantili” (Handkerchief) promotes our culture, human rights and democracy, strengthens student relationships and wellbeing. Students study the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the EU, and each group member takes a name of the rights. The game took place in three rounds and it ended in a draw. Freedom and Solidarity were winning rights -poster creation with the words “peace” and “love” in various languages
