Description
This lesson plan was made for students from 6 different countries that were hosted in my town (Xanthi-Greece), under the Erasmus+ Programme/Action KA2 in May 2015. The name of this project was " Family,Community and School: The Troika of my values".The students were separated in teams of 3 or 4 persons(mixed from different countries) and they worked in my school's informative laboratory. They had to make a research through internet to find information about one hometown of their peers (totally: 7 towns),select text,images,videos & links about their topic,and then create a Power Point Presentation.The final step of the lesson was to present their work to their peers and finally to vote the best presentation.
Aims
To enable students from different countries to cooperate,to make a team research of information about their topic,to critically select the necessary material for their PPT,to create a PPT and present it to their peers,and finally to assess the presentations of the other teams and select by vote the best one.
