‘1st Educational Content Contest for Understanding ASEAN’ to Help Elementary School Students Learn about ASEAN

The ASEAN Culture House is hosting the 1st Educational Content Contest for Understanding ASEAN. The contest is designed to improve elementary school students’ understanding of ASEAN countries. The goal is to develop educational content tailored to elementary school students that boosts understanding of the ASEAN member states and to further evolve this content into immersive educational programs.

Each entry must consist of 40 minutes worth of educational materials(including a syllabus, student activity sheet, and class materials) for elementary school students to help them understand ASEAN member states. Participants are recommended to customize their entries by grade level(lower, middle, and higher grades), and examples include immersive educational content that allows kids to learn about ASEAN through society, culture, and history; educational content that features balanced information on the 10 ASEAN member states; and actual cases of educational programs in classrooms, clubs, and immersive activities.

The contest will award KRW 6.1 million in total prize money. Elementary school teachers, prospective teachers, and citizens who are interested in ASEAN are welcome to submit their entries. Detailed information can be found on the ACH website(www.ach.or.kr).
