WORK PROCESS

Students are divided into groups on a national level

They decide what Nobel Prize Winners from their own country they will work on.

They will use the official site of the Nobel Prize  

https://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/lists/all/

After choosing three/four people, they work together and create a timeline

The timeline includes biographical details and also information, curiosities about the Prizes.

The students have to understand the reasons for the prize very well.

Each group publishes their timeline

All the timelines are shared

National groups have to create a quiz about their own Prizes

Each country has to analyse all the timelines in order to create questions

Each country creates a quiz about their own Prizes

Quizzes are shared

In a videoconference, the partners ask more questions about their partners’ Prizes
