The students' exceptional collaboration is showcased on their respective pages, which feature the interactive-collaborative tools they used.

 

Here, you will find the work that was done in person in Krakow on April 14-17, 2024.

 

The idea for this meeting came from Jens, the German school teacher and could be realised thanks to a grant he applied for and receivedfrom the "Aktionsprogramm Schule gestaltet politische Bildung", given by the Landeszentrale für politische Bildung Hamburg.

The meeting aimed to promote productive collaboration, understanding of different cultures, and tolerance of divergence.

Thanks to the "TOLI Institute" grant that Kyriaki, the Greek school teacher, applied for, we could also finance a six-hour study tour to Auschwitz-Birkenau. Lidia, the Polish school teacher, offered her expertise in Art and History, prepared educational and interactive tours, and managed the meals and free time activities, which resulted in excellent outcomes.

We spent the evenings reflecting and working on the project to finalize it. Some of our memorable moments can be viewed below.

Teamwork in the evenings. Discussing, writing, sharing.
