Visibility of eTwinning Projects Group July 2013 Newsletter

I represented Bursa with our eTwinnning
Coordinator Elif Yaman Çal.
We stayed in Lisbon for a few days but the
memories and lessons we carried to our country
were enormous. I participated in many workshops
and I was impress ed by the clever minds all around
Europe. The first thing which came to my mind was
Augmented Reality by Hendrien Exel. Although – I
must confess – I am not good at scientific
developments [I do not even watch science fiction
films], I was curious about this reality and during
the break I found myself trying the demo. The
other project that was presented by Manuela
Correia was “EUrope” (EU+rope). Music played a
differential role to link people. As the title suggests,
they used the rope to make sounds such as
skipping with rope, hitting, pulling, scraping,
hanging rope and many experimental ways to
create more and more. Many congratulations to my
friends.
What about Ali Osman Sönmez School 2013?
Since March, I have been trying to continue three
projects with different themes.
The first one is ' Spot the difference - come
together and meet each other'. The idea of the
project was to compare the schools, school systems
and students`lives according to various cultural
backgrounds. The project is based on guessing
games, sharing photos and films, web quests,
webinars, Skype sessions. I succeeded in signing 16
students from Industrial Automation Department
which is one of the popular classes in our school.
My students could enter with their passwords and
create their profile and were very successful at
sharing their own photos with their friends.
We – Turkey – had a very colourful stand with
many gifts, posters, booklets, leaflets, traditional
food and beverages and of course the presentations
of successful projects of my friends.
The next one is 'Tourist guide of my region'. This
project focused on Power Point presentations about
various places of interest within the region of the
participating students. Our students showed the
most beautiful and interesting places of NorthEastern Venice and Green Bursa with pictures,
