1. Our project

  • We want to draw students’ attention to Philosophy and History in Architecture, Arts and Geography. In fact, students have to describe the borders and the walls in their town, region or country both geographically and historically through a C.L.I.L. approach. It can be something built in the past or something that it's going to be built. So, they have to take pictures, make videos, write short reports or talk about what they see in order to make e-twinners know about the different technological and architectural skills of each country. After that, they could talk about borders and walls in the world. This will lead on to discussions and comparisons between the History and Geography of the different countries through Architecture and Art, trying to understand what this involves and what a wall or a border can represent and mean.

     

    Students will learn: 
    - to improve their key-competences such as communicative skills in English, ICT skills, organizational skills; 
    - to improve their knowledge of technical language through a C.L.I.L. approach; 
    - to discover aspects of their partners’ culture and of the other country’s history and architecture; 
    - to develop an awareness of the meaning of borders and walls across Europe;
    - to increase motivation for studying History and Geography together with Architecture in order to understand how they relate to the world.

     

    Students will be able to talk about borders and walls in their own country and in their partners' ones. They will get skills to understand the border issue from a historic, geographic, social and architectural perspective. It may lead them to develop greater attention to borders in the world. 
    The whole collaborative group's work will be visible on our public Twinspace.
