We went to Turkey on 11 - 15th April with the Comenius project. We met Polish, Germany and Turkish students. It was a great experience. We met new people and new friends of different countries. We saw a fabolous city and we ate typical dishes for example: the kebab. We also visited the ancient city of Ephesus, it is a involuable heritage of Roman and Byzantine civilizations, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. The Turkish students are very friendly and warmly. This experience was very important for us we could know and learn the traditions of this, country that looks so far but it is very similar to ours, expecially for us Southern Italian students. We discovered that we are a lot in common with Turkish people not only from the culture point of view but above all from every day habits.

In December 2009 eight students from Nautical Institute of Crotone with two teachers: Vincenza Massara and Ottavio Tirantola went to Poland, the journey was rather long , they had to reach Podgrozie in the North of Poland but once arrived they met some friendly guys from Poland , German and Turkey. The visit was great even if the weather was really cold. They stayed all together in a students’ house , had some project work, some sport activity but above all they had a lot of fun.

The German experience in Lemgo was very useful not only from educational point of view, but also from social point of view. We met many guys from different countries and we had the possibility to discover their life style and habits sharing together fun and study.

One day we went to Hamburg where we visited the harbour and we saw a lot of ships . At the port we visited the tunnel under the sea and of course the city. It was a really cold day and the cold stung our face, but we felt well because of the warm friendship we were able to create.

We wish we were in Germany.

In April we went to Izmir in Turkey. The town is wonderful and also he people very similar to Italian was so nice and easygoing. Very interesting was the visit to Epheso town and of course we went to Turkish market and we ate a lot of Kebab.

This was our last trip with Comenius project and we are so sad because we miss our Turkish, Polish and German friends.

Our Nautical Institute has its own Comenius Project and we are proud to announce that this Comenius Project “Living together but Diverse” has been accepted by the National Agency.
The project stems from the necessity to get students involved in an Intercultural Dialogue, to help them to know to understand and to accept the “other”, to reduce stereotypes, to develop social skills and find a way to effectively communicate with other cultures.
It is addressed first of all to classes of students and teachers of second and third year of our Institute and classes of students and their teachers of the participating countries taking part to the project.
The participating schools and countries are:

Poland: ZESPÓŁ SZKÓŁ IM. IGNACEGO ŁUKASIEWICZA W POLICACH
The polish school is the coordinating school of the project.

Germany: Hanse-Berufskolleg des Kreises Lippe

Turkey: MAMAK ORTAKOY ANADOLU TEKNIK VE ENDUSTRI MESLEK LISESI

The project will run for two years and the partners will have the chance to meet four times (twice a year); for the present school year, the first mobility is to be held in Poland in December, while we are going to host our partners in April.
The topics to be discussed for the present year are: Local enterprise procedures, culture and tradition.
Our blog will favour the discussion and the testimonial of what happens in the single institutes and partner-countries and will let a better knowledge of different culture realities.
