Description
of Project Assignment for NC students
International
Collaborative Literature Project
This is a cooperative learning project that will be done in conjunction
with the Lower Canada College in Montreal Canada. We will be working
with the story The Name by Aharon Megged. I have chosen this story
because it depicts certain elements of our culture and is very popular
and read by many. There are also many ways to analyze this story and
leaves much to the reader to interpret its themes.
Below
are the details:
You will work in pairs to complete the following project. Each group
may choose one of the items listed below. Please come to me as soon
as possible with the name of the girl you are paired with and which
project you have selected.
Once
the project is polished and graded it will be placed on the website
to be shown to our partnering school, The Lower Canada College in
Montreal. In turn they will be working on a story that they feel depicts
elements of their culture and will display it on a web site for us
to see. We will be reading that story in class. Both schools will
then have the opportunity to comment on the websites and will benefit
by getting a deeper insight an understanding of the others culture.
