Video Conference

On Thursday, the 22. October, we did a video-conference with Athens. There was also a woman from an university. She interviewed me (Sanja) and Marion, a girl from the other half of our class (there are a French and a Maths group in our class). The woman asked many things about the project, what we think of it, ...
There were many pupils, teachers and parents at the conference. I think the parents liked it because they could see what we do and learn for the project. We liked the conference too, it was very interesting. The pictures at the conference weren't very good, but that doesn't really matter. We asked the Athens' many questions about Greece, the weather and such things. We hope that the project will go on like this.

Today we spoke with the pupils of the 1. form of the Lyzeum Ellinogermaniki Agogi. The 1. form of the Lyzeum corresponds about our 5. class secondary school. The temperature in Greece is between -1 and +6 degrees Celsius. In the last  days it was  raining, but snow can you only find in the mountains of Greece. They were very interested, when we have Christmas holidays. The school Ellinogermaniki Agogi shuts already one day before our school closes (How nasty). We've sent a mail with photos from the district heatery station to Greece.The video conference was several times  interrupted because there were technical problems. Partly we unterstood nothing. Then we tried it with chatten, but after any time the pupils in Greece reacted no longer of our questions. In Greece the holidays lasts, like our holidays, about 15 days. They use, as well as our school, ISDN - line and we are connected by a modem with Greece. Professor Eisenbarth welcomed personally and lauded the speakers for his excellent german. They asked us for the classe size and the relation boys: Girls. According of the picture we could detect a teacher, but we could not get out his name. Then they spoke was about the "question of the month". They asked  us if we know already the new question or the subject. Of course we could only say that we will talk about it next week. (We had no time to study it, because there were test, free days and other pupils in the computer room). So we got a new date (in a week) for a conference and therefore  ends my protocol.
