Action 4:Democracy and Citizenship

  •  

    Democracy and Citizenship is the 4th Main Activity.First,the students will share videos about Democracy and Citizienship on Twinboard and they will watch or read the content shared by others.They will take a Poll about how participating individuals they are in life.Next,we invite the young people to a Challenge.They are supposed to show how entrepreneur they are.They will work individually or with small group and will prepare a work about a certain glocal issue and try to raise awareness of others.At the end,all the works to be done by the involved students will be voted by the Twinspace members.(Students and Teachers)

    In the next step,the students will work with mixed  European teams and students in each mixed team will make online search,read ad watch and write an essay or similar content about the team topic.The topic of each mixed team will be about theme of Democracy and Citizenship but each team will work on the different aspect of the topic.The works of the students in the European teams will be brought together in an ebook.In another task,the involved students will prepare two PSA videos(Public Service Announcement)as young citizens on the theme of democracy-active citizenship,climate change,multilingual Europe,European values.One will be multilingual another will be only  English.

      

    We intend the students to raise the importance of inclusive and participatory democracy and to understand their roles,rights and responsibilities as an active citizen and to gain  more positive attitude towards democratical values and to raise their awareness of multilingual Europe and to motivate them to learn other European languages from starting early ages.

    With the help of the activities,they will have the opportunity to strenghten the achievements of different school curricula in the partner schools(Language,History,Essay Writing,English and ICT...).The students will practice different school disciplines in an interdisiplinary approach simultaneously.

    They will make search about their democratic rights and responsibilities,exchange their ideas with their peers,discuss,cooperate,develop team work skills,digital competences and promote creative thinking and entrepreneurial skills.
