GENERAL OBJECTIVES

We are preparing the selection of participants for our project. In order to offer clear information, we have written down our objectives: 

OPENING DESIRE PATHS FOR CULTURE

GENERAL OBJECTIVES

 

1.-The final product of this project is to design an interactive map based on the literary production of writers from our region, including historical, geographical, artistic and economic information.

 

 2.-Technology will be a strong area in our project, as we are planning to use different ICT tools to design our map and to share it. We will need to learn how to use tools that have proven to be very useful in current education. Our activities will encourage both teachers and students to create materials and to share them with other schools and with society. For this dissemination part, technology will be crucial.

 

3.-Norba Caesarina school wants to compromise with a region, Extremadura, which is really in need of promoting itself and reaching an international dimension. In order to design the contents of our interactive map students will have to do research on our artists, especially writers and painters, landmarks and natural places. It is a challenge to investigate and to share materials with our Swedish partners and with society.

 

4.-We believe in the importance of opening schools to society. To carry out the tasks in our project our students will have to contact associations, writers, painters, local authorities, cultural institutions, state libraries, book shops, art galleries, etc. These tasks will prepare them for activities in real life (designing online sites, making interviews, recording podcasts and videos, sharing documents, translating, creating logos, etc.)

 

5.-Most of the literary materials we are going to deal with are related to remote rural areas, so we would like to put those beautiful places on the map by showing where they are and what has been painted or written about them. Rural areas are facing a lot of challenges at the moment, so they will be an important part of our map, in an attempt to show their potential and their cultural dimension.
