Description |
The World History in Family Photos is a continuation of the project started in 2014. The students continued to create a digital archive of the contemporary world history comprising personal stories and experiences, everyday life snapshots, interests, historical events and cultural information concerning events in the last few decades of the countries involved. Every class in the participating schools chose a family photo taken in a given year and presented the events of that particular year in their respective country to all the participants; first through Facebook, and then through the project website. All participating schools had the opportunity to portray their chosen photos on the timeline of the project website. This project focused on creating materials with multimedia tools (videos, photos, texts, power point presentations, etc.) about the different time periods. The World History in Family Photos was a golden opportunity to the students to see – at a glance – real life experiences from different parts of the world in the same years. |
