Objectives

To explore the world of work.
GEM guides students in a journey through different work scenarios: in each of them, they will dress the ‘clothes’ of a professional dealing with different situations in which they will have to choose the behavior they consider most appropriate. This activity therefore allows both to begin the exploration of the external world and to stimulate self-awareness.
