- Increase students’ Knowledge about Past, Present and Future.
- New ways of Learning, via Photography.
This project also wants to raise awareness on the importance of each country cultural treasure in the European year of Cultural Heritage.
Students introduced themselves using a post in a padlet which is an online billboard, then they worked in groups in class and described their school, their town and their Christmas tradition using "talking photos". To create the photos they first took photos then used an app called PicTalk to add the baloons.
The students had the chance to collaborate in small groups all of them gave their contribution to the work.
Here are the results

Students also created a quiz on their presentation for the students of the other schools.

In the following weeks students will be involved in other collaborative activities and will keep on working on photos.
