TAXLANDIA

If you were Prime Minister…

You are now in Taxlandia, a tiny European state with gorgeous mountains and clear blue lakes. A popular tourist destination when the economy was booming and a country with minimal taxes, Taxlandia faces now an unprecedented crisis. A lot of companies moved their headquarters, tourism decreased. Last year the authorities admitted that it was time to increase taxes. Soon, an unofficial “tax rebellion” started.

And now YOU have been appointed the new Prime Minister of Taxlandia! You have to start collecting more taxes, build the new infrastructure, and ensure further development of the country. Good luck!

GREAT ACTION

Earn high scores as you solve various quests
Save cities from natural disasters and bad investment
Restore happiness and welfare in Taxlandia

In the process, understand the tax mechanisms and the way they are collected.

CHALLENGING AND REWARDING

This is an educational game with lots of action, 3D views and funny characters, but also with a thorough tutorial that helps the player make the best decisions.

However, risk is part of the business and the reward for some clever investments can be great! Also, it can lead to public outcry if you fail. People will demand your resignation!

ACHIEVEMENTS

Fight criminality and pollution in your country by investing in high tech police departments, smart administration buildings and large leisure areas in the cities
Enhance employment with keen investments and watch over the happiness of your people. Be careful though! When their happiness drops, people start to rebel against the authorities.

HINTS AND TIPS

Lots of hints and explanations, an easy to understand glossary of terms that you can also use in class
Three levels of difficulty, age based: 9-12 yo, 13-17 yo, 18-25 yo

BikePrints

The Social Biking project app

BikePrints mob app designed for collecting data from EU citizens on Physical Activity and Social Networks for the Social Biking project (S-b). The Joint Research Center is setting up the project "Social-Biking"(S-b) which aims to motivate European citizens to move more and use more environmentally sustainable means of transport. Within the S-b framework, JRC will compare different incentive schemes on cycling activities of people.

The S-b is an internet based project which will be exclusively coordinated and conducted through the BikePrints mobile application which allows users to track their movement and more importantly to see other friends' shared movements. Participants will be receiving social based incentives, i.e. a biker will receive points if s/he bikes on the same path with other S-bikers. During the project S-bikers will receive different rewards (sport/bike equipment) based on their physical activity performance and on their social performance.

The AQUASURVEY app consists of an easy-to-use application with one component for use by desktops and one for Android devices, with the optional integration of the online GIS on www.aquaknow.net.
