Our students, after having introduced themselves, will progressively use the IT means, collect the partner school materials and prepare a presentation of the partners’ country and traditions using the foreign language. In order to do that, the pupils will collect information and images about their own life, habits and their own country and will send various materials to the partner school. They will record their voices and send podcasts, until they’ll become so fluent to face a real conversation using, for instance, a video conference software like Flashmeeting.
