Pilot Milestones
Classroom pilots and testing phases where NVC Game modules are validated with students and teachers across Türkiye, Germany, Italy, Estonia, and Portugal.
Each of the six gamified NVC modules follows a development → pilot → review cycle under WP2. Partner schools run classroom pilots, collect learner feedback and assessment data, and feed results into TPM reviews and module revisions.

How Pilots Support the Project
Aligned with the WP2 module timetable (Cultivating Peaceful Communities.pdf, Project & WP Summary.pdf).
What pilots deliver
- Evidence on OFNR learning outcomes, empathy, and judgment-to-observation accuracy in real classrooms.
- Structured feedback from teachers, students, and pilot facilitators after each module phase.
- Pilot evaluation reports and revisions before modules are finalized and openly disseminated.
- Integration with gamification analytics on Moodle and the companion mobile app.
Pilot rhythm (2026–2027)
- Modules 1 & 2 classroom pilot — partner schools, 6–24 April 2026; evaluation 1–5 June 2026 (Portugal).
- Module 3 pilot — September–October 2026; online review hosted by Italy.
- Module 4 pilot — December 2026 (Italy).
- Module 5 pilots — Estonia, February–March 2027.
- Module 6 pilots — Kastamonu MEM, May–June 2027.

Modules 1 & 2 — Classroom Pilot
School-based pilot of Module 1 (NVC foundations) and Module 2 (observation without judgment) with students aged 12–15 — baseline and formative assessment in partner schools.
Modules 1 & 2 — Pilot Evaluation
Present sample activities, implement in classrooms, and evaluate Module 1–2 pilot outcomes with teachers — evidence for the summer TPM review.
Module 3 — Empathy & Active Listening Pilot
Classroom pilot of Module 3 (Empathy in Action) after digital content and accessibility updates — perspective-taking and active-listening activities with pilot schools.
Module 4 — Conflict Resolution Pilot

Initial implementation of Module 5 (Words that Heal: Dignity, Inclusion, and Cultural Sensitivity) with Estonian pilot schools — Kohtla-Järve Maleva Põhikool.
Module 5 — Pilot Implementation & Evaluation
Extended classroom implementation and structured evaluation of Module 5 pilots — learner feedback and assessment data for module revision.
Module 6 — Anti-Bullying Pilot (Presentation Week)
Classroom pilot launch for Module 6 (The OFNR Time Machine: Anti-Bullying Edition) in Turkish schools — presentation week led by Kastamonu MEM.
Module 6 — Whole-School Implementation Day
