“A Journey to Hope” – images of ourselves and others.

The objective of the project is to raise awareness of cultural values among young students from countries such as, Turkey, Spain, Poland, Italy, Norway and the UK. This will be done by developing teaching material to be integrated and tried out in different curricula. The project will especially exploit the powerful media of cinema and its influence on young people. ICT skills will be enhanced for staff and students by using a blog to communicate and share materials. Films on intercultural themes will be selected and learning material developed. Discussion will result from these films between students from partner schools. Students will learn about intercultural dialogue by participating in intercultural activities devised by partner schools.

In addition to material on films the partnership will develop material on music, language learning, literature, art, geography and history, to name but a few. It is very important to develop and integrate the perspective of intercultural dialogue into existing curricula and this project will focus on this as a central theme.

External and internal evaluation will take place of this project and this will be predominately through the blog.
