Project procedure / outcomes:

Students have been paired and they exchange letters about the 10 themes of the project via e-mails. We plan to exchange all the 10 letters but we will add topics as proposed by students and teachers.
Along the e-mails we plan our students to learn how to use different ICT tools (scanning, drawing, writing, recording sounds, PowerPint presentations...) and exchange other materials between groups:

  • drawings,

  • videos,

  • photos,

  • sound recordings - language expressions, songs, national music...

  • interesting internet links on certain topics

and to:

  • build a special site for the project created by the students - which will be done by sending materials to Viljenka Šavli via e-mail as an attachment.

  • meet virtually in real time in organised chats covering special topics (the chat will be saved and published on the net)

  • discuss the chosen topics and their experiences in our forum

  • prepare the questionnaire for report at the end of the project

  • evaluate the work at the end of the school year

Timelines: October 2002 - a deceision by teachers to start the project.
