About this Learning Circle

In this global classroom, you will be challenged to think about yourselves and how to use your capabilities to take care of someone else. You will connect with other students worldwide, by sharing your thoughts, your plans, your work and actions in this wiki. Together you'll find out how different or similar you think about care and responsibility in your community.

What are your dreams and hopes, your goals and expectations? 

How can you do something meaningful for someone else and turn ME into WE?

Things that you believe in and try to achieve can make a difference in the world. 

In every culture, from Canada to Romania or Nepal, there are people who believe in their dreams. By working together with students from 6 different countries, you will learn from new perspectives and increase understanding of each other's conditions and habits in life. 

You have the opportunity to work together on various assignments and share your own stories and opinions.
Maybe your activities can be an inspiration for your classmates in this international classroom!

Imagine that people are more and more involved with each other and communicate about what they value in the world around them.

Imagine what can happen when you think, act and do. Can you contribute to changes?

Can you learn 2 change?

Phase 4 - Completion & Evaluation

January 09 - January 27   2017 

NEWSLETTER Monday January 30: 

Dear participants,

After a learning EDventure of 4 months the Learning Circle 'Me becomes We' has come to an end.

Many students in this Circle shared their reflections, social actions and their 'eyeopeners'.
Based on these and other summaries in the phase of 'Completion', we can see that students really enjoyed their Circle work. 

• If you want to share more learning outcomes and eyeopeners, please do so this week.
• This LC wiki will stay open for at least one more year, so there is time enough to enjoy the contributions of your fellow learners, 
  feel free to add a comment at the bottom of each page :-) 

• We really appreciate your 'tips and tops' for us and future participants. They will help to improve our Learning Circles.

  --->  Please be so kind to answer 3 questions to evaluate this Circle. You'll find them on your school pages.

We kindly thank you and your students for all your hard work and impressive contributions.

Keep up the good work!!

With greetings from the GTP team,
Manon

Skype and Feedback

  Feel free to also indicate a time / date that would suit you best :-)

 Feedback:

• Every participating class or group gives feedback, directly on the school pages of the other participants. 
   

• By giving and processing feedback, we pay attention to the criteria for the assignments and reflect on the work of the other classes. 
  
  

• We all give feedback on the learning process and on the results. 
  Your efforts throughout the project will not be assessed only on the final outcome of the project (whether the intended result was achieved) but also on the extent to which you thoughtfully plan and implement each task along the way. 
  How did your class succeed in reporting the process and in making creative contributions?
   

• We are connecting our classrooms internationally, working together on things that matter in our world.
  On-going feedback from peers will support your learning outcomes.
   

• It's also possible to make brief remarks: for this purpose, please use the comment boxes at the bottom of each page.
