Description:
Life has changed a lot in the 21st century.
People need jobs to make a good living. The constant change in our society
makes children want to learn about the jobs they can get when they grow up. The
aim of our project is to help students aged 10-15 find the best job they can, according
to their interests and skills and to develop the skills they need for the jobs
they want. We use English as a main language of communication within the
project group and English and the partners’ mother tongues to disseminate the
project in our countries. We use digital media and computers to record and use our
arts and crafts skills to prepare the materials for the project. We visit our
students’ parents’ workplaces and interview people to find details about their
jobs. We write interviews and create a word cloud of the jobs, make the list of
top-5 jobs popular among the students of each team and compare the results and
post on the project blog, for dissemination. Our project is a cross-curricular
one. We disseminate the activities on our blog.

Objectives
The main aim of our project is to help
students aged 10-19 find the best job they can, according to their interests
and skills and to develop the skills they need for the jobs they want. Our
students will improve their English and ICT, as well as their arts and crafts
skills. They will learn how to interview a person, describe a job, illustrate
it (drawing, photo, etc.).
Work procedure
Teachers communicate in English via Twinspace,
email, Facebook, etc. The Romanian team starts the project blog, which will be our
diary, a means of dissemination and evaluation. All partner teachers publish
the materials on the blog. On the 26thof September, to celebrate the
European Day of Languages, all teams present their schools and countries on the
blog. We”ll make a list of top-5 jobs popular among the students of each team,
compare the results, make a model interview to be used to interview people
about their jobs. They will take photos/video the visits; select the project
logo. Each team will come with a proposal and the most interesting one will be
chosen (Oct-Nov).In December and April we send greeting cards to our peers. In
January - April we interview the famous people/celebrities/ authorities we can
find on Facebook. In May-June we make an exhibition with the photos/drawings
and the arts and crafts, materials they make about the visits. June is feedback
time for our project. In December - May we can meet on Skype.
Expected results:
We’ll make the project blog, which will be
our diary, as well as a means of dissemination and evaluation. All the
materials made by the students from each team will be published on the blog. These
materials can be used by other teachers for English or/and the counseling
classes or other school activities.
