"Bringing an International Dimension to Education"

As Gymnasia N. 7 seeks to expand its connections with the world, we have been working on an application to work with a company called "Global Gateway" which seeks to 'bring an international dimension to education'. Our school will be linked with other schools around the world to learn more about how students study in other countries, and of course about their local traditions, customs, and general lifestyle. Lena and I (pictured below) have been working on the application process and will be submitting our final paperwork by the end of this week!

One component of the application process is to submit a short video to introduce the school. With a two-day deadline, Lena, students, and I worked quickly to finish a presentation. I wanted to share it with you!

For teachers who are interested in connecting with schools around the world, visit: http://www.globalgateway.org.uk/ AND, of course, the World Wise School program for teachers in the states (through Peace Corps) at: http://www.peacecorps.gov/wws/

Best wishes!
