Collaboration

Group work 

Make a project for a school class.  

Find a theme/subject/topic: We choose Culture as our theme.

Brainstorm:

 Chose a subject from the brainstorm - KISS (Keep It Small and Simple)

We choose food as our theme. It should be a collaboration project with another country. 

Brainstorm on Food: 

We choose to make a project about food customs.

•          Theme, why did you chose it:     - We have chosen this subject because it gives the teachers possibilities to do different things with the students, cook, and presentations. We believe that it is a good thing to teach the students about cultural differences through things they already know, such as food. We believe that the students will learn about differences by comparing their eating habits with their classmates and the students from the other country.
• 
  
•          Goals/What should the students learn:     - The students will learn about different customs/habits and rules about food in other countries.  This will also teach them about cultural differences. This will prepare the students for a global/multicultural world and make them more prepared if they visit other countries. How to get information from others.
• 
  
•          How long should the project take?     - You use few hours in a week to establish contact with the other country/school. Where the students get learn about their customs and exchange information about food. After a few weeks when you have all the information you need about the other country’s customs and food, the class begins to make the project in a week.
• 
  
•          How to evaluate the project?     - We would make the students to make a presentation of what they have been doing in the project week. After the presentations they could make a class discussion where they compare the other country’s customs with their own.
