Campus Fenix participates in Erasmus Project DICORE: An unforgettable experience!

From August 18 to 22, 2025, several teachers from Campus Fenix, GO! Atheneum Grimbergen had the opportunity to take part in the Erasmus+ project DICORE in İzmit, Turkey. This international training program, entitled “Play to Learn: Mastering Gamification in the Classroom,” offered an intensive and inspiring week focused on the latest digital and pedagogical innovations.

Throughout the five-day course, our teachers explored gamification, AR/VR, AI, and cutting-edge digital tools that are shaping the future of education. Topics such as digital ethics, safe use of digital tools, green technology, and creative learning with multimedia were thoroughly discussed. Workshops and hands-on sessions at the Kocaeli Science Center provided practical applications and allowed participants to experiment with concrete gamification solutions for classroom practice.

What made this experience truly special was not only the richness of the content but also the international collaboration. Teachers from different countries exchanged ideas, shared experiences, and worked together to develop new didactic perspectives. This cross-cultural cooperation offered great enrichment and provided our school with new insights to further strengthen 21st-century skills, creativity, and digital competences in our teaching.

For Campus Fenix, this participation was an enormous added value. Not only did our teachers gain new knowledge and skills, but they also returned to Grimbergen with renewed inspiration and motivation. This Erasmus project once again demonstrates how important international cooperation is in keeping education future-oriented and inclusive.

We look forward to sharing the acquired knowledge and experiences with our colleagues and students, and to continue building an innovative learning environment where play, technology, and learning go hand in hand.

Today we had the joy of taking part in the first day of the Erasmus project ,, Digital competence for resilient educators”, an experience that began with emotion, enthusiasm, and curiosity. The day opened with an official introduction, a moment in which we got to know each other better, socialized, and discovered the diversity and beauty of the group we are part of. Every conversation was an opportunity to build new connections and to share different perspectives.

After completing the preliminary test, we explored topics of great relevance and interest: digitalization and ethics in education. It was truly inspiring to discuss the responsibility we hold when using digital tools, especially in our work with students. Together, we reflected on how technology can be a valuable ally, but also on the risks it carries if not used wisely.

Another meaningful moment was the presentation on the safe use of digital tools in education, where we learned how to integrate these resources into our teaching while keeping the well-being and protection of children at the very center.

We also discovered innovative platforms and applications related to artificial intelligence, multimedia, and streaming, tools that can foster both creativity and productivity. We discussed how AI can serve as an incredible support in the educational process, but also a challenge if not approached with responsibility.

The day concluded with feedback and group discussions, where we exchanged thoughts, ideas, and reflections on the experiences we had lived. I felt inspired and motivated, grateful to be part of a project that opens both mind and soul to new horizons.

Overall, it was an intense first day, filled with valuable insights, genuine human connections, and an excitement for all that lies ahead.

The second day of the project was full of learning, discoveries, and meaningful experiences. We started the morning with a visit to the Izmit Water and Sewage Administration, where we were warmly welcomed. The hosts introduced us to their laboratories, showed us the technology they use in their daily work, and even performed a practical experiment to test the pH of water. It was a fascinating moment that allowed us to better understand how science and technology can contribute to a cleaner and safer environment.

Later, we explored the topic of Green Technology and its use in education. The presentation was both interactive and inspiring, focusing on sustainable digital solutions and innovative tools that can be integrated into the classroom. The trainers constantly checked if everything was clear, asking us if we had understood and making sure that everyone felt involved and supported throughout the session.

The atmosphere was very engaging  participants shared ideas, asked questions, and reflected together on how digital transformation and artificial intelligence can shape the future of education. We not only learned new concepts, but we also enjoyed the collaboration, the openness of the speakers, and the friendly way in which knowledge was shared.

In the afternoon, the program continued with group discussions and feedback, where we had the chance to express our impressions, exchange perspectives, and strengthen the connections between participants.

Day 2 was both educational and enjoyable a perfect balance between theory, practice, and teamwork. We left with new insights, useful skills, and the motivation to integrate what we learned into our professional paths.
