Process

FIRST STEP: Let's start!

First, you will have to decide what role you have in this project:

Student A: You are responsible for the part about the language school of your choice.

Student B: You are responsible for the part about the cultural aspects of the country of your choice.

Student C: You are responsible for the pictures (with captions), the charts (e.g. climate) and the layout. Please make sure that your brochure is neatly typed (watch spelling/avoid fancy font) and includes at least three pictures.  Include a bibliography (e.g. interresting sites) and be prepared to share all your information with your class.

Second, you will search the Internet for some fun places.

Here are some ideas for your search:

What about beautiful Australia? 

Why don't you study in Great Britain?

Remember: Once you have gathered all the necessary information about the school and the country of your choice, you will create a brochure.

Please include the following information: 

- a language school of your choice (why did you choose this school/advantages/courses offered/prices/accommodation)
Student A is responsible for this part!

- the cultural highlights of the country of your choice (politics/education system/tourist attractions/climate)
Student B is responsible for this part! 

- three or more pictures (with captions), charts (e.g. climate) and clear layout. Please make sure that your brochure is neatly typed (watch spelling/avoid fancy font) and includes at least three pictures.  Include a bibliography (e.g. interresting sites) and be prepared to share all your information with your class.
Student C is responsible for this part!

 

 


 

 

THIRD STEP:

At the end of this project you will also present your findings to the class. Please make sure you check the Evaluation page of this WebQuest for information about the requirements and the grading. It is important that you all equally participate in the oral presentation.


Good luck!
