Check U wins educational innovation award at Open Education Night by Edflex
Edflex event
Edflex, a leader in corporate training, organizes an annual event to raise the profile of open education. This year, among the 8 trophies awarded for the best initiatives in the training sector, Check U received the prize for pedagogical innovation. Although the game was initially designed for high school students, it has been announced that it will be put to good use in the corporate world, as part of an employee skills enhancement program, or in situations involving reorientation.
What is Check U?
Check U is an educational career guidance tool designed and made available by a project team from the Digital Department of the Université Polytechnique Hauts-de-France. It includes 3 games in 1 to support exchanges on skills, interpersonal skills and the discovery of sectors of activity. Its use is designed to help high school students refine their post-baccalaureate project, leading to a successful orientation.
Jérôme Graindorge, responsable du projetThe Check U card game was born out of the need to make the guidance process more fun. It encourages high-school students to explore their skills, which are essential for their career orientation. This Edflex Open Education Night award is an opportunity to highlight our commitment to a more agile, skills-oriented education, transforming the way young people approach their future. Other edutainment projects are currently being studied by the Digital Department.
