“Armenian Studies for Teenagers”: An Educational Support Program for Armenian Diaspora Schools

The course, designed for youth aged 14 and older, is a unique journey not only through time and space, but also a path toward self-discovery.

"Armenian Studies for Teenagers" is not just a study of Armenia as an object, but a guide to shaping one’s own identity. By learning about Armenia—its history, culture, nature, language, and art—participants begin to see their inner world in a new light, build self-awareness, and develop holistic thinking.

During this course, fundamental knowledge is formed by weaving together information and developing skills, making learning practical and tangible, meaningful and engaging. This not only stimulates intellectual growth but also shapes thoughtful, reflective, and independent individuals.

Short description

During the course, participants will:

• Explore Armenia’s regions and Artsakh—their nature, culture, people, and history.
• Develop knowledge of the geography of Armenia and Artsakh.
• Analyze important historical events, drawing parallels with the formation of modern identity.
• Reflect on the role of art, language, music, and traditional culture in personal development and community resilience.
• Become familiar with the ideas of great Armenian thinkers, writers, and artists, and seek their own responses to this heritage.
• Learn about key figures in Armenian history as individuals, analyze their roles, find similarities with themselves, and form constructive ways of thinking.
• Read beautiful samples of Armenian literature, discovering their own emotions and thoughts through literature.
• Participate in cognitive, creative, and discussion-based activities—debates, team projects, structured experiential games.
• Develop language skills: the ability to express opinions, argue, and narrate in Armenian, both in writing and orally.
• Study the elements of national identity, attempting to find their own place within modern Armenian reality.

Methodological Description

How can the learning process be transformed into a journey that develops the student’s cognitive skills?

The demands and guiding questions lead us toward research and then strategy development, since it is not enough simply to present accessible content. Information today is easily available to students through the internet or books. The essential task is to teach students how to learn, apply, and critically evaluate that information.

Teachers must organize learning with methods that make the student an active participant in the process. New material should be learned not through direct instruction, but through the teacher’s guidance.

Research results lead us to an important conclusion: if we want to develop cognitive abilities—perception, reasoning, and memory—students must be given the opportunity to process information through their own subjective perspective and transform it into knowledge.

Our lessons are built on the principle of developing cognitive abilities and are structured in three stages:

• The student perceives and receives new material.
• The student applies what they have learned / reflects on it.
• The student transforms the new material into knowledge, embedding it into long-term memory.

Materials Students Will Need:

• Dictionary
• Workbook
• Pen
• Pencils

Each program lesson includes:

• Lesson material (slideshow)
• Written teaching guide (for the teacher)
• Video teaching guide (for the teacher)
• Practical activities for students
• Homework for students

“Armenian for kids – 2nd grade” course is designed for 8–13-year-old Armenian-speaking children who can already read and write in Armenian.

The course includes reading, watching interesting videos about Armenia and Armenian history, listening to Armenian songs, fairy tales, and poems, participating in group activities, and playing educational fun games. The teaching method is game-based, which significantly increases children’s interest and motivation to learn while also making the teacher’s work easier. The playful approach helps simplify the process of acquiring knowledge and skills, encourages free and independent thinking, expressing personal opinions, making choices, and developing the ability to orient themselves independently in the learning process.

The course begins with Mesrop Mashtots’ alphabet, presented in a vivid and engaging way, ensuring active student participation from the very first lesson. Children are immediately immersed in an Armenian environment, learning about Armenian kings, cultural heritage, and the natural beauty of the Armenian Highlands with its majestic mountains, crystal-clear springs, fast-flowing rivers, and blue skies reflected in serene lakes. They explore Armenian traditions and symbols, creating Armenian-inspired crafts with their own hands. They also learn about great Armenians — writers, artists, scientists, and composers — who enrich their daily life through their works.

Although the course includes alphabet training, since it is aimed at children who can already read and write, the focus is on reinforcement through repetition, accompanied by engaging reading materials. From the very beginning, children become familiar with linguistic units and gradually acquire grammatical knowledge.

As the main goal of the course is to develop speech and expand vocabulary, it is filled with interesting texts and videos that not only improve language skills but also provide valuable knowledge about Armenian history, geography, and notable figures.

Course Goals:

• Develop oral speech
• Enrich vocabulary
• Improve writing skills and spelling accuracy

• Equally develop reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills
• Foster interest and engagement through games
• Introduce Armenian children’s writers, storytellers, inventors, culture, history, geography, music, as well as Armenia’s symbols, wonders, and traditions
• Build teamwork and collaboration skills
• Develop aesthetic taste
• Improve fine motor skills and creativity
• Foster creative thinking

Learning Outcomes:

• Express ideas both orally and in writing
• Read fluently and retell literary texts
• Write with correct spelling
• Speak confidently in literary Armenian
• Collaborate effectively in groups
