Good morning everybody, my name is Darwin Moreno, I am from Guatemala city, the name of my project is "Weaving bonds of fraternity in Latin America".
The general objective of the project is to create bonds of affecttion and fraternity among first grade children in schools in Guatemala and second grade students at San Bernardino School in Bogota, Colombia.
The children are between 7 and 8 years of age. Throughout the project, many technological resources have been used like the computer, video camera, and photographic camera.
Regarding the computer, we have used Movie Maker for videos, Word other web pages and other programs like Skype to have video conferences between the children of Guatemala and Colombia.
Some significant advances we have had in the project, both for Guatemala and Colombia have been of great benefit for the children.
This has been showing more in Colombia, because they had almost no technological development and due to the project, they began using computers and they've had the benefit of learning how to use them and now they can carry out many activities with them.
In Guatemala, in addition to the computer, they have been able to do some things with the video and photographic camera, learning to use them, as well as their e mails and send each other information using them.
The purpose of the project is to learn about the Guatemalan and Colombian culture and that based on what the children tell, we are able to exchange the things that they do every day; always keeping in mind what means to be Guatemalan and Colombian in order to understand each other's culture and learn from each other.
Thank you
