Our project

• This is a cultural exchange project. We discuss a new topic every month. We use web 2.0 tools, we meet via Skype and finally we edit a wiki. The aim of this project is to find differences and similarities in our lives. After discussing our topics or sending our short videos, glogster, or other digital projects, we are going to summarize what is the same and what is different in our countries. I want my students to see more of the world, to know more about other countries, and I would like other countries to know more about our small country, Hungary. I hope my students will find friends and practice their English language skills through this project.
