On May 25, 2023, Mgr. Miron Breznočšák from Gymnázium Andreja Kmeťa, Banská Štiavnica, Slovakia, led an online workshop titled Model Activities on the Subject Regional History and Education. He presented model activities for an interdisciplinary school subject of Regional Education and focused on how any town or a region might serve as a model of microhistory, using the town of Banská Štiavnica as an example, introducing its heritage, history, and traditions. Both the workshop and the Regional Education subject showed the applicability and variability of the presented methods for different periods and environments, fields of studies, and different types of learners.

A workshop titled Film Soundtracks, led by Mgr. Ľubica Durcová from Gymnázium Myjava, Slovakia, took place on May 24, 2023. The students were introduced to the history of music in film, how this music is used to manipulate our emotions, and how different film genres use different types of sound.

The students first listened to specific scores from popular films, in pairs and then in groups,  trying to identify what film the music was from and discussing what type of emotion it seeks to elicit. This was followed by a discussion of the students' own favorite film soundtracks, making lists of them in groups and creating posters for concerts consisting of those tracks, exercising both their knowledge of films and their creativity.

On May 24, 2023, Mgr. Alena Cilíková from Gymnázium Myjava led a Student Parliament Elections workshop, connected to the subject of Civic education. The students first discussed the role of the Student Parliament, before proceeding to activities connected with the election itself.

The students were separated into several groups, each tasked with forming their own political parties and each picking their speaker, then preparing a poster introducing their policies. One group formed the Election Committee and prepared the ballot box and all the papers. After preparing their campaigns and giving their voting speeches, the students experienced simulated elections and after counting the votes, the official winner was announced. The workshop helped foster the students’ creative and communicative skills, as well as teaching them civic responsibility.

The first in our series of workshops, titled The Healing Power of the Word, took place online on March 21, 2023, coinciding with the International Poetry Day as well as International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. It was led by professor Fella Benabed from Badji Mokhtar - Annaba University, Algeria, and focused on the concepts of psychological resilience and coping skills, empathy, building the students’ racial tolerance and their teamwork skills through various activities. These were centered on Maya Angelou’s poem “Still I Rise”, IFAD’s video "This Is How We Rise", and Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech.

Maya Angelou’s poem as well as IFAD’s video and the subsequent discussions introduced the participants to the issues of discrimination and women’s empowerment, while the discussions around MLK’s speech focused on the Civil Rights movement. Other activities focused on fostering the students’ yearning for justice and equality, and the final assignment concerned their self-actualization.
