It's important to show diversity as an added value and I feel necessary to star teaching it since the primary school. vinci_patrizia https://padlet.com/vinci_patrizia/ks8ufjbk61r/wish/124493107 2016-09-16 23:45:32 UTC https://padlet.com/vinci_patrizia/ks8ufjbk61r/wish/124493107 DEVELOPING INTERCULTURAL COMPETENCE AS A TEACHER. It's relevant to break down prejudices, showing diversity as a normal way of living, underlining that different values according to different societies have the same importance and have to be respected a yours own. vinci_patrizia https://padlet.com/vinci_patrizia/ks8ufjbk61r/wish/124493152

The main obstacle, I think, is that not all the people have the awareness of their own culture. I intend: If you don't know yourself you can't communicate, collaborate and, above all, understand and respect the others. The principal task of a teacher is to encourage the knowledge of diversity , the empathy and the respect vinci_patrizia https://padlet.com/vinci_patrizia/ks8ufjbk61r/wish/124493188 COMPETENZE INTERCULTURALI STUDENTI]]> 2016-09-16 23:47:58 UTC https://padlet.com/vinci_patrizia/ks8ufjbk61r/wish/124493188 MODELS OF INTERCULTURALITY Integration is the typical model/practice in the schools. I paid particular attention to the third model presented as it is a mix of yhe previous two because it provides the practice of common motivations that can gather the attention and the participation of everyone despite of his/her personal culture, traditions and habits. vinci_patrizia https://padlet.com/vinci_patrizia/ks8ufjbk61r/wish/124493217 2016-09-16 23:48:53 UTC https://padlet.com/vinci_patrizia/ks8ufjbk61r/wish/124493217 INTRODUCTION vinci_patrizia https://padlet.com/vinci_patrizia/ks8ufjbk61r/wish/124527135 My name is Patrizia Vinci. I'm from Naples but live and work in Cosenza, Calabria, Italy. I teach English in secondary high school.
My students' age is from 14 to 19. It's really interesting to participate in this course because I've no experience with foreign students and this is a good opportunity to improve myself.
I like music, particularly jazz and classic; I'm an outgoing, empathic and talkative person, love my job and my students.]]> 2016-09-17 17:30:09 UTC https://padlet.com/vinci_patrizia/ks8ufjbk61r/wish/124527135 vinci_patrizia https://padlet.com/vinci_patrizia/ks8ufjbk61r/wish/124920394 2016-09-19 22:56:07 UTC https://padlet.com/vinci_patrizia/ks8ufjbk61r/wish/124920394 Modulo 2 - Starter activity vinci_patrizia https://padlet.com/vinci_patrizia/ks8ufjbk61r/wish/125507310 I've been working in a city, Cosenza, in Southern Italy and my students are really heterogeneous, in the sense that, many of them come from all the little towns and villages around Cosenza, a part lives in the centre of the city and now, step by step, foreign students are entering the school (secondary high school). Their provenience and cultural backgrounds are really diverse. I have a good feeling with them and no problems 'cause I've empathy and a positive way to relate with them. My students not always interact among them. By the way i use my subject - English language - to create a confidential and peaceful environment in the classes .]]> 2016-09-21 17:41:14 UTC https://padlet.com/vinci_patrizia/ks8ufjbk61r/wish/125507310 Supporting students with different first languages vinci_patrizia https://padlet.com/vinci_patrizia/ks8ufjbk61r/wish/125571490 A multilingual school is a really beautiful experience. The support the families can give to the inclusion of their sons is foundamental.The opportunity to use their home language makes the students confident with the environment they live in, making them sure they aren't diverse, and, at the same time, they can contribute to the exchange of cultural aspects to share in the community they are part of. Last but not the least, teachers formation - the staff, as it's said in the video occupies a great importance; the way o approachthe "diversity" has to be as creative as possible and only working together it' possible to reach a common goal.]]> 2016-09-21 22:10:53 UTC https://padlet.com/vinci_patrizia/ks8ufjbk61r/wish/125571490 "Who am I?
