    LIVING NEWSPAPER: THE VIDEO

    Our video on the task "Living Newspaper: The women's rights" is ready. You can enjoy it!!

    EVALUTION OF THE METHOD

    The innovative teaching method called “Living Newspaper” was a pleasant surprise. First of all, our etwinning team liked the task very much and all the members worked hard but happily to complete the task.

    The presentation of this teaching method was even better. The other students of our school loved this effort and applauded their classmates.

    This teaching method caused an interesting debate among students on women's rights and position of women in society. Many students expressed their opinion with arguments and passion.

    I think that the aim of the method, to generate interest of students for this issue, was reached.

    France: Living newspaper teaching method

    The way we worked in our class was very dynamic: students knew they'd have to create videos to illustrate our work in class, so they were determined to understand the situation of women in Europe.

    Everybody was very excited about those videos and all of them worked hard on the topic. They did everything on their own: choice of scenario, characters, script, shooting.. So the videos are really the students'work!

    Hope you will enjoy the final video with our partners, as much as we enjoyed it when we discovered the fantastic editing work done by the Croatian team! Thanks Croatia!
