The Magical Prelude

In the heart of Látky, Slovakia, a diverse group of teenagers embarked on a journey of a lifetime. Thanks to the Erasmus+ Programme, these eager learners delved into the enigmatic realm of digital literacy from September 16th to 26th, 2023. Their mission?

The Bonding Chronicles

The journey commenced with lively name games and team-building activities. After all, what’s an adventure without getting to know your fellow explorers? These activities turned strangers into friends and laid the foundation for the tight-knit crew that would embark on this digital odyssey together.

Diving into the Digital Abyss

With newfound camaraderie, the participants dove headfirst into the heart of their mission: understanding the digital world. Guided by their passion for learning, they pondered the mysteries of social media scrolling and explored the vast landscapes of online tools like Prezi, Google Slides, Canva, and ChatGPT. These inquisitive minds questioned, discussed, and experimented, gaining insights that would shape their digital destinies.

Cultural Kaleidoscope

But it wasn’t all work and no play. Evenings were a celebration of culture, where traditions came to life through vibrant dances, interactive games, presentations, and quizzes. The air was filled with the essence of diversity, and the exchange of cultural nuances enriched the experience, making it truly unforgettable.

As the project drew to a close, the participants basked in the glow of their achievements. Future project ideas were conceived, Youthpass certificates were proudly earned, and heartfelt goodbyes were exchanged. The digital odyssey had come to an end, but the impact of this adventure would resonate in their lives forever.
