We have
called our Project` Europe are us´, because we wanted to make people conscious
about the fact that we all form Europe . So we
started finding out about general aspects of the countries and we also looked
into what Europe offered. We asked people
about what they knew about this topic and finally, we concentrated on the European programmes for teenagers.
The first
step in our project was collecting
information about the countries which form the European community , the
European parliament and all the
information about European programmes,
prizes etc..The comic we had to read was great help to find this data. So we
prepared together with our mates from the other Eurocascales group posters in order to exhibit them in the main
corridor of the school where parents and students usually pass.
After that
we decided to check what people from Murcia
knew about Europe so we prepared a survey with general questions and went out .We recounted the
survey and found out that many people Know facts but there are still people who are far from it.
We also had an appointment with the Europe
Direct Director in Murcia .
It was really interesting since they explained and made clear many aspects of
the topic we didn’t know and most
important, they gave us the source to look into any European issue, together
with interesting websites to get information about anything that we could be
interested in.
Finally,
since our school participates in Comenius which is one of the European
programmes, we took advantage of this fact and interviewed some students from
different countries about the European programmes for teenagers and their
experience with it. They all agreed about being a positive experience which links
European teenagers to make us aware that `Europe
are us´.
