FLiP2Go
What is FLiP2Go?
FLiP2Go is the centerpiece of FLiP in the Rhineland, an educational initiative financed by the Rhineland savings banks. FLiP2Go brings financial education directly to young people.
The 100-minute tours we offer are aimed at:
10- to 14-year-olds
15-year-olds and above
The content is available in German.
FLiP2Go learning stations
Knowledge is imparted in the FLiP2Go in seven station areas, in the center of which a touchscreen is positioned more or less as a table. After an activity has finished, each group moves on to the next station. Each activity lasts 12 minutes.
ValueCase
Visitors are invited to go on a trip that will make them realise that one and the same thing may have different values, depending on the situation. At the end, they will have learned that price is not the only determinant of an object’s value.
WorldTour
Global economic relations, dependencies and other economic impact factors are illustrated using examples of specific products, including jeans, tablet computers and coffee. The visitors see that their decisions as consumers have far-reaching effects in the globalised economy, and they learn about the complexity of global supply chains.
ExpenseCheck
What do people in Germany spend the most money on each month? How do I plan a budget? Here, visitors recognize how sensible and important it is to plan expenses and what the average costs are for housing, food, mobility, etc.
Job-O-Mat
By answering several questions at the beginning of the game, the visitors enter their desired professions. They are then presented with five professions that best match these ideas. By changing parameters such as training, salary and working conditions, new career suggestions are generated. It is shown which qualifications are required for which jobs and how training and later earnings are related.
MarketTrade
The visitors start out by buying fruit and vegetables at a wholesale market. They then have to set resale prices and offer their goods to customers in a retail market. The game illustrates how supply and demand determine prices.
FinanceBattle
The visitors are grouped in teams and compete in a race by answering questions relating to banking, financial markets and housing. Teams become faster when they give correct answers and are slowed down by wrong ones. The team that reaches the goal first wins.
MoneyMaze
Together, the visitors navigate through a labyrinth. While a monster is hot on their heels, various objects have to be collected. Each object contains a short video sequence. Depending on the target group, the history of money or the creation of money by commercial banks is explained here.
How does FLiP2Go come to me?
