REPORT OF EVALUATION TOGETHER FOR A BETTER TOMORROW
According to the evaluation survey that we applied to the participant students of "Together for a Better Tomorrow" eTwinning project:
1.They mostly liked doing real life challenges. Trashtag challenge has been a popular one on social media so it was enjoyable and raised their awareness about environment. In addition, the campaigns in change.org, made them realize that it is not so difficult to attract other people's attention to social issues in an easy but effective way. 2.Next, they had fun and learnt a lot while sending and receiving New Year postcards. They say these real objects from a teenager in a different country are really nice to keep as a memory. 3. The other favourite activity of the students were watching TED talks and videos of Greta Thunberg-a famous young activist for global warming. They liked discussing their opininons and generating new ideas with the assistance of these encouraging videos.
