Passion for Education

What started a few years ago in a schoolyard in Amsterdam East and a boys' school in South Africa is now taking serious shape. Our ambition is to enrich education with gamification to keep students on the edge of their seats. And it’s working. The network of participating schools is steadily expanding.

Journeys

We distinguish between exclusive journeys and standardized theme lessons. In the Journeys, we connect students from different (international) schools. They meet three days a year in a three-year program. Each year, the program’s complexity increases, teaching them about cultural influences and biases, personal leadership within teamwork, and theoretical knowledge along with practical experience on the central topic. Currently, we offer The Young Entrepreneur and The Young Citizen programs. We are keen to expand this type of program further, especially since students look forward to each new edition every year.

In the theme lessons, students relive historical moments or step into the shoes of a notable person (role model, historical figure, style icon, philosopher, artist, etc.). This approach has a dual benefit: students literally experience the subject matter and are also challenged with 21st-century skills. These lessons can be scheduled at any time. 4Challenge can provide support with trained students (hoping they too will fall in love with education) or you can choose to facilitate the lesson yourself. We set up the game behind the scenes and provide you with a clear instructional video (covering lesson structure, managing student expectations, the teacher's role, scoring, and debriefing).

Young Entrepreneur Adventure

An ambitious, interactive program for secondary school students in South Africa and the Netherlands, focusing on entrepreneurship and run by volunteers.

"We have witnessed the serious added value that the gamified learning concept has brought for our learners. Not only that, I believe that there is massive scope for the approach that 4Challenge takes and we are extremely happy to be in partnership with them."
