EVALUATION OF ACTIVITY A2

 

A2 : Online Logo, poster , motto.

The aim of these activities is to motivate students to be more involved in the project activities and to disseminate the project among the other students at school.

Firstly we have informed the students about the activity. During the project meetings at schools, they decided to work in groups, one group worked on the creation of the logo, the second group on the poster of the project, both to represent each school in the competition during the first short term exchange of groups of pupils in the Netherlands. Each group put together their ideas and created more than one logo but democratically all the students voted and selected the best one to represent their schools in the final competition among the six countries in Netherlands.  As for the poster, they created the posters for the competition in Netherlands and posters for the schools to disseminate the project. About 25 students took part in this activity, in Spain and The Netherlands the number was smaller, around 20.

After the activity, the teachers prepared short questionnaires to assess the way the students responded to the activity and the procedure.

Among all schools, 90% of students worked with great responsibility and diligence, they enjoyed to take part in this activity and could express their creativity too.

10% didn’t like it and participated irregularly and with poor interest

During the short term exchange of pupils in Nijverdal it was selected the best logo among the six countries for this Erasmus project and the Portuguese logo was chosen to represent it. The same procedure for the poster and the Greek poster was the winner.

Students did some drama games to make them think and discuss serious subjects and one of the tasks within this activity was “Think of a Motto for this youth exchange.” This theatre game integrated some behind-the-scenes exercises, which promoted working together on a shared goal and came out with a final “product” .

The motto proposed by the six countries students was:

 CHANGE IS HAPPENING NOW.
