„With History Through Generations”
30.05.2009 – 06.06.2009
SUBJECT:
Former and Present Links between Lithuania and Poland – on the trail
of cross-cultural dialogue in time and space
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The project participants will be twenty students aged 15-17 (10 students from each school,
including 4 disabled students).
The activities will be conducted using a simulation game: “Time and Space Travel – on the trail of
cross-cultural dialogue”. The participants of the game will take up the roles of four time machine crews
and will be visiting places in Vilnius that are connected with the shared history and culture of Lithuania
and Poland. The students will have a field trip to Raseiniai and Trakai. The artistic activity reports from
the trips will have a form of: “Logbooks of Time and Space Travel” made in four international groups.
The reports will include a poster, presentation, painting, installation or sculpture (inspired by the
Invocation by Adam Mickiewicz) and – for young citizens of the EU – a guide to Vilnius and a bikers map
of Raseiniai.
The project participants will also learn to recite the Invocation – the Poles in the Lithuanian
language and the Lithuanians in the Polish language. The disabled students will coordinate the
organization of the Tournament of Vintage Games for the local community. The summing up meeting will
include the presentation of project reports, basketball ”Match of Friendship” and the tasting of national
food – “Healthy Cuisine of the Two Nations”.
During their eight-day stay in Lithuania, the students will take part in study visits and workshops
that will present to them the way both countries functioned before and after joining EU structures. The
students will create and distribute information enhancing mutual understanding and cultural
cooperation. The participants will develop the basis for further school exchange schemes.
The school exchange for students of II Liceum Ogólnokształcące from Lubartów and Saltinio
Vidurine Mokykla from Raseiniai will be executed as part of the Polish Lithuanian Youth Exchange Fund.
The Lithuanian partners will also help in overcoming the language barrier with the community
(the project is executed in Lithuania and the working language of the project is English). All activities
covered by the project will be implemented by both groups together. When carrying out the activities, the
students will work together in mixed Polish-Lithuanian groups. For the 8 days of the project the students
will always be together. At the end, the participants will plan their future cooperation.
The project participants will learn how to work in international groups, to work for the local
community and also to obtain information from older people about old games and national dishes and
then they will present them for the local community.
The following methods of work will be used in the project activities: workshops, presentations,
simulation game, field trips, study visits.
The six-day stay in Vilnius and the two-day trip to Raseiniai will cover four main program parts:
activities with guests invited for that purpose (interactive lecture and workshops),
consecutive parts of the simulation game whose objective is to create “Logbooks of Time and Space
Travel”,
activities promoting health and the culture of the two countries (games and workshops),
joint artistic activities: art and literature workshops.
All the methods and project activities are aimed at promoting the non-formal learning and
development of the young. The project participants will meet with people involved in issues related to the
EU and local government (in Vilnius – the University of Vilnius, the Presidential Palace, in Raseiniai –
the Town Council). In this way, they will gain knowledge of joint activities of both countries within the
European Union as well as work towards tolerance and understanding of diversity as they will learn
about the rules governing cross-cultural dialogue. The students will broaden their minds concerning
ethnic traditions, e.g. by meeting with a local folk artist and preparing dishes under the topic “Healthy
Cuisine of the Two Nations”. In order to improve physical fitness, the project participants will prepare
and carry out (also under the guidance of the disabled students) the tournament of vintage games and
a basketball match of mixed teams.
Before the projects starts, students from individual school will prepare draft concepts of the
artistic works to be created during the student exchange (creation of films, presentations, installations,
paintings, sculptures, maps – guidebooks).
PROJECT EVALUATION:
On the last day of the stay in Lithuania, students will evaluate and close the project.
A survey will be conducted among project participants. Working together, the students will make
evaluation posters and summarise the project.
In their respective schools, the students will evaluate the project and make a final conference call using
Internet connection.
The students will organize a public exhibition of artistic works. Local newspapers and the schools’
websites will present articles promoting cross-cultural dialogue between Lithuania and Poland.
The students’ knowledge and experience – provided in the form of “Logbooks of Time and Space Travel” –
will be presented to schools and cultural institutions in their cities as an example of good practice.
The effects of the students’ work will be published in local newspapers – photographs, a report on the
project activities.
The whole school community will be able to see the multimedia presentation, posters, artistic installation
and the exhibition of photographs in school gallery.
Effects of the project activities will be posted on the websites of the schools.
The tourist folder (guide to Raseiniai and bikers map) will be distributed among students of other schools
in the town and posted on the website of both partner schools.

łacina, greka, niemiecki

z Hendrix'em i Caravaggio. Fascynują mnie aborygeńskie abstrakcje
malarskie i taneczne. W przyszłości osiedlę się w Stonehenge.

dance abstractions. In the future I will settle in Stonehenge.
