(Giorgia) Expectations of people interested in the project

Dear all,

I asked people from my staff and a couple of people outside to write down their expectations on this project here on this blog. Hopefully they will write a comment on this post (maybe one doesn't need to know the account info to post a comment, does he?)
Ciao!
Giorgia

  1. My name is Iolanda Palpacelli and I'm a teacher in a school of Torino. I've been informed about this project in October, during an open day at the planetarium. I'm really interested in following this project as I'd like to create a similar collaboration in the future between my school and schools abroad. I personally think it is a very good opportunity for Italian students to meet foreign people and learn a different culture without just studying it on their textbooks. Futhermore, I think they will learn English in their overseas trip much better and faster than they could do in their school. So I'm looking forward to seeing if they are able to work together with their American friends although they won't meet till this summer.
    I will be reading this blog periodically to have news of the project.

  2. Hi, I'm Eleonora. I'm following the project since it was only an idea in the mind of Rebecca and Giorgia. First of all I hope it could be a great possibility for girls and boys to be courious for different aspects of life, and an opportuniyu for their future. Then I hope it colud be a way to give this guys the awareness of the power of their mind, of their fantasy and of their capacity to collaborate and work togheter for a common task.
