 The main theme of our project is historical heritage. We aim to use this heritage to bring together teachers and students from different countries across Europe to show that historical heritage and natural heritage could be used a means of intercultural cooperation, interaction, respect and understanding. The title is “Historical Heritage As a Bridge To Intercultural Dialogue.”
The project has been integrated with school’s curriculum of History, History of Art, Geography, English, Literature and ICT courses. Pupils of each partner school have searched/will search, gather information, take photos and design presentations and websites to become aware of and introduce their own heritage and spread the project activities. Each partner will have a Comenius Corner (school board) where they will display materials of the project activities together with pictures, flags and information about partner countries. Most of the activities have been done/will be done by students because we want to help them develop as independent, searching, self-esteemed, and active learners. Mainly, e-mail communications and notably international exchanges to historical places will promote intercultural dialogue, increased awareness of multi-cultural and multilingual Europe. As regards products and dissemination, we aim to have presentations, bilingual websites, a common tourist guide, e-newsletters, meetings/conferences, news on the media, and CDs. Our project is funded by the European Commission's Life-long Learning Programme (Comenius) and it covers the time span from August 2008 to July 2010. |
