You Complete Me

About project

Pupils will identify problems caused by diversities and look for ways how to make the best of it. Students from different countries will work jointly on an international “diversity textbook” which will inform about diversity through presentations or videos etc., worksheets and activities for pupils. In all parts of the project students will be involved. They will also be the first learners as they will try the activities prepared by their partners.

Goals

The overall aim of our project is to show students that the diversity has positive and negative aspects and that people can focus on the negatives because they do not understand the diverse world, they are often afraid of it. We want our students to think about problems globally and recognize that different does not mean bad. Project activities will teach students through teaching others about the beauties of diversity and will allow them to recognize the needs of the others and their own. Students will work on an international “diversity textbook” which will inform about diversity and the major problems connected with it. 


We will focus specifically on situations which are part of students´ everyday life and groups they belong to such as family and school. The project will develop understanding of diversity and increase students´ self-confidence, communicative and social skills, ability to work in a team and build new friendships.
