The Danish EU Presidency in the first semester of 2012 is a good opportunity to focus on the European Union in schools. Therefore the Danish government has made on line, interactive educational material on a number of themes that will be high on the agenda during the Danish Presidency.
The educational material consists of background texts with questions for discussion and fact boxes as well as quiz and movies for each of the following five themes:
The material is developed in cooperation with the EU Information of the Danish Parliament and primarily targeted at high schools, but can also be used by secondary schools, adult education centres, colleges etc.
The material is freely available in Danish and English on the Presidency website eu2012.dk and various educational sites.
