Students will connect through a digital platform (Glitch website or app) that facilitates communication and collaborative learning. The platform will also provide access to digitized archival materials, audiovisuals, and virtual museum visits to relevant sites such as:
Video Introductions: Students and schools create videos to introduce themselves, their cultures, and their communities.
Cultural Exchange: Share daily life details, such as school routines, hobbies, and family traditions. A focus on cultural differences in communication and behavior helps students gain deeper cultural awareness.
History Exploration: Compare historical narratives, especially regarding colonial history and the Indonesian Revolution (1945-1950). Debate how these events are taught in each country and which perspectives might be missing.
Final Discussion: Schools present their findings and reflections, engaging in a digital meet-up to discuss their journey and what they’ve learned.
Through a secure, digital environment, schools can connect, communicate, and learn together. The Glitch Project supports various subjects, including History, Geography, Social Studies, and English, allowing for an interdisciplinary approach to global citizenship education.
Students will exchange ideas on various themes, such as:
Teachers can guide students in exploring cultural differences, building trust, and creating a safe learning space for meaningful discussions.
