Sicily is the door of Europe for migrants. Before teaching at primary school, I taught Italian as a Second Language at migrants (both adults and minors) so I get acquainted with the subject.
I think that Adult migrants have a different way to deal with their new life in Europe but the minors need to get protected more and, if possibile, they need to be adoctable by families trying to make them spending the shortest time ever in foster-homes.

Here in Romania, we do not address the phenomenon of newly arrived immigrants too often as they are not very many to be seen. However, given the fact they have different cultural backgounds, it is not easy for them to integrate and neither for us to accept them. Moreover, the process of integrating them into the national education system is a difficult one, implying a lot of support from teachers, parents as well as from the community.

My school is in the north of Italy and in the area we don't have refugees camps but there are migrants coming mainly from Africa. They receive help from local religious organizations, some of them live in houses owned by the Church not far from the school. I don't know much about their condition actually. Anyway at school we have students that belong to families who have recently moved to Europe to find better work and living conditions. Through this course I'd like to understand how my colleagues, my pupils and I could better support the above-mentioned students and help them feel part of the community.

The greatest part of schools in Portugal doesn't have refugees but only economic migrants [in our school there are no migrants resulting from the current crisis, but we always welcomed students (and families) from other countries, namely from former Portuguese Colonies, Eastern Europe (a  Balkans crisis consequence) and the economic crisis in Brazil].
This topic is a complex one and it is different to start  talking about it in the classroom.
Making part of a team who are developing an Erasmus+ Project about Refugees my goals for this Course are to know everything I can to give my collaboration to the Project as well as being well informed about the topic.

My school is far from the refugee camps. At school there is no newly arrived migrants, but of course I learned a lot about the situation of these people. It's  terrible suffering children. In Bulgaria most people can not imagine how so parents will leave their children to flee themselves and believe that newly arrived migrant are  prepared groups that come here. I know it's hard I to convince someone in empathy.

I joined this course to continue learning what I started in the first course of the series. I have not met yet in my class any migrants but I need to knew more because in my country there are a lot of  "newly arrived migrants" so I want to be able to help them and also to help myself and my students to understand them. How can I talk to someone and about someone who is just coming from dangerous country but who has the right for a better life.

# data[].attributes.body
I am originally from Germany and I am a qualitative researcher normally - but will soon deal with this topic in the frame of a youth exchange project in Turkey. My main question is, how can I implement a self-reflective position in teaching practice. How can I empower newly arrived migrants, and work against the construction of an "other", what can be a way of creating empathy without getting lost in a position of pity and charity. How can I talk to someone and about someone who is just coming from war but just wants to have a "normal" life and not being treated as exceptional - without dismissing t
he experiences he or she has gone through. Also how can I include the actual heterogenity of people I talk about as well as of my students.

# data[].attributes.body
This is a topic that really interests me and I want to go on learning about it. I know it is a complex topic but what is life without some more defying things for us to fight for?

I haven’t dealt with it in my classes because there are no refugees in my school, but in a nearby village there are some 30 people who have been in Portugal for six months, so it will be possible that some will come to my school one of these days.

In fact, nobody can deny this is a topic we all have to live with nowadays in Europe. So I think my biggest challenges are going to understand how to deal with refugees, especially kids and teens who have suffered horrors in their recent past. Addressing them will be my first challenge, so I hope to loearn a bit more with this course to feel confident in my actions.

My city is the center of the country, away from the border areas and refugee camps. But often influenced by the media wondered how I feel these people? How children feel without relatives in a foreign country as a different traditions, customs, culture and language? As a psychologist I am not prepared to answer their needs.

I teach 2 days per week in a school of refugees and most of them speak only arabic!
few speak english and translate to classmates what teacher says in english and not Greek!
The key point to to give a meaning to students on what are they doing in the class and that the lesson is not a period of time that has just simply to pass.
They are kind and willing to participate! The teacher should be patient and try to catch their interest! Although they cannot speak or write, they can draw, express with sketch and they can also use smartphones an google translate!

I live in a low socioeconomic level area. At my school there are few foreigners and generally  well integrated.

Currently, migration has become an important issue for all of Europe, and especially for areas of low socio-economic level.

Children of migrants are vulnerable, especially the ones who are alone who are separated from their families. School and teachers can do more to teach respect for different cultures.

I knew quite a few things about the serious issue of  migration as I needed to discuss it with my students in class at the beginning of September. Of course I wasn't aware of numbers and formal regulations as mentioned in the video but I would like to convince the sceptical ones that migration should be handled with special care and respect. Although I know that discussion is a very fruitful tool to raise awaireness  I would like to find other ways too. That is the reason I joined this MOOC. Useful Information from the video is HERE.

In our country the immigration is quite low. The number of asylum seekers and refugees is low as well. However we discuss with our students on the issue of newly arrived migrants by analyzing the different aspects of the forced and voluntary migration, such as causes, consequences, legal framework and so on. Personally I tried to encourage the students to follow invents related with migration in the Europe and understand them.  However the methodology and practical of the analysis is very important and I am not feeling self confident in this one.  I hope to find the answers for my questions in this course.

School can be a shelter for them a place for them to hope.

The main problem for me is the beginning, because it happens to be introduced when the school year has already started, and if you do not know the language isolate. I teach music to their arrival in the classroom I try to make a reception by listening or dancing traditional music of the country of origin of the migrant or songs in their language of origin. I think it's a way to have an experience of sharing and rapprochement between different cultures.

Since 2006, I've been teaching ESOL to adult learners moving to the UK from all over the world for various reasons. For the last 18 months, I've been working for a charity organisation providing support to refugees and asylum seekers. That is to say that I've had experience of working in a very diverse learning environment. My main aim is to help my student learn English. Yet, I have realised that I should also support them in overcoming the issues around the psychological impact of migration, as well as in the process of assimilating to the new way of life. I've already researched the matter, but keep looking for more information and for ideas that could be applicable for my classroom. I would also like to improve my own intercultural awareness to be able to appreciate my learners' experiences and needs. Last but not least, I'd like to look beyond the classroom and get a better understanding of the situation with migration and the related legal issues.

Although I am informed about the topic, until now I tried to avoid it, because as a teacher I have students that are both pro and contra. I didn't want my students to form a negative opinion of me because of politics, because my work as a teacher is very important to me. In the last two weeks however we have newly arrived migrants children at our school and I am very sorry that they aren´t learning german, so I can´t be part of their school reality since I am a german as a second language teacher.

I know the topic is very daunting  and it is crucial for us to  cope with it in our school.  To remove  prejudices  can be sometimes very difficult  but nevertheless we have to face this importante challenge for school and educators.

Tackling the topic in the classroom can be quite daunting, I do agree. Sometimes students have some prejudices about migrants, prejudices they've just heard of, that they do not even understand completely. So it's important to raise their awareness, as the title of this course suggests, in order to start a constructive debate about who migrants are, why they are coming to Europe and so on. I hope this course will help me do that.

Good afternoon I am sorry to be late!
I think that it is important to understand why a family or a person leaves his country going to an uncertain future as it is well said in the first videos.
In most cases war, persecution and poverty are the main causes...
So when children from other countries arrive and we welcome them in our society and schools, there are some laws and principles of incluion to be followed.
In Italy there are some governmental guidelines to schools about children and families coming from other countries. There are linguistic mediators and courses of L2 especially organized for first alfabetization in case they don't know the italian language.
Inclusion is one of the main objectives in school.
They are included in common classes and activities because full immersion in the language is fundamental and it os important to have positive relationships with peers.

Hi everybody, it's good to be with you. Sorry for being late, but I am super busy at the moment. Nevertheless I want to follow this course and will do my best to be faster with the next tasks. I am teaching German as a foreign language to migrant and refugee teenagers in a small secondary school in Germany. In my school we have got four classes for migrant and refugee students who are mainly studying German at the moment. But ... one by one very soon they have to be integrated into the regular classes, to make friends and to study more subjects besides German. I hope our German students will always welcome their new classmates, even when their German still isn't perfect, even when they look different and behave differently. We don't know what these young people have gone through before they arrived in Europe. First they don't have the words to tell, later they often don't want to talk because they don't want to think about the horrors of their past anymore. After the first time of euphoria many people in Germany are no longer welcoming, very selfishly they only think about themselves and don't want to share their wealth. I hope I find arguments to convince my students that the human right of asylum is much more worth than a full bank account, that migrants and refugees make our life much more colourful and more interesting as they open our minds to the whole world. I really hope I will get a lot of good arguments in this course and also ideas for activities how to work with students, both Germans and migrants and refugees.

Hi everyone! I teach in a vocational school in Middle Italy. In my last course, most of the students were refugees and migrants coming from Bangladesh, Egypt and Albania. The main difficulties were communication and class inclusion. They were isolated and totally reserved. they can't speak Italian and even English. They have left their homes to escape from wars and they were living in a community house outside the city.
Talking about migrants and refugees in class is delicate. Prejudice and ignorance still exist

Unfortunately lots of people have bad prejudices about migrants such as "they come here to steal our homes, our jobs .../they destroy everything we give them..." and pupils grasp their family's opinions.

I feel that it is important that the students will be trained to accept tolerance in the context of cultural diversity. Of course, the main problem is how to convince students and parents of this new reality and the need to help. You have to fight prejudice and fear. On the other hand, communicating with these childern is another issue for me. Understanding their culture and way of behaviour is also important so as not to offend them.

Hallo! I teach Italian language and literature, history and geography in a lower secondary school. My students have from 11 to 14 years old. A shelter for people asking for asylum has been created near my school (and near my home): about three hundreds of young men and young women with their children live here. In my neighbourhood this shelter has aroused a lot of tension, but I think we can live this event as an opportunity. I think that is important to talk about newly arrived migrants in my classroom, because we have to fight against prejudice and the false information.
In this course, I hope to learn data and information about migration in last years.

Hello! I tech English at a Primary School of Drama, a Northern Greek town. We have had migrants from Russia, Albania, Georgia and Bulgaria for the last years. Students are integrated into our school community. In March 2016, a hot spot was built in my town that hosted refugees from Syria. For the time being, childrenhave been taught in the hot spot but the authorities are trying for their integration, as well.

I teach English at High school and I have sometimes introduced these issues in the lesson starting from a reading text and eliciting questions and opinions. I have never had a refugee in my classrooms but I think that speaking about these problems is of fundamental importance as I noticed a lot of young people don' t care about it or don't accept diversity. In my opinion all teachers should encourage their pupils to reflect and raise awareness of the necessity of integration

I teach at a kindergarten here we don't have any refugees or migrants, but nevertheless I think this is an important topic and I am concerned about the situation of the refugees in Europe.

I teach Italian/History/Geography in a secondary high school; we always talk about migrants and refugees, with my students, because two of them are sons of migrants anc because in Italy the argument of migrants-refugees is important, expecially in the southern Italy. We try to comprehend the motivation of people leaving their countries and it's important for students to get in contact with the reality of the refugees in paerticular, so they don't categorize them as work thieves, as most people in italy do.

I've been teaching for many years to newly arrived students but I still find it hard to handle with some issues : what can I do for those who don't have any shelter ? how can I help my students adapt to their new school and be succesful in their studies, how can I help them learn not only how to commnicate in French but also school language and rules and way of learning? How can I deal with prejudice? Il' d like to convince some other students and teachers that welcoming newly arrived children is not a problem but a great opportunity. I'd also like to know more about the various newly arrived people bakgrounds . And I'm very much interested in discovering how teachers from different coutries cope with those issues.
