Activities 2010-2011
Itinerant exhibition - The European Time Capsules (in their final versions resulting from the project meeting of the previous year) will circulate from partner school to partner school in an itinerant exhibition as a warm up and motivation for this year’s activities. In the end, the different time capsules will be kept safe by the institutions involved.
Project Meeting - (staff) hosted by the Greek partner in October, 2010. In this meeting the year activities will be planned in detail.
Questionnaire to gather information on young Europeans of today - Each partner proposes questions on different topics (e.g. music, fashion, sports, technology…) to build a questionnaire. Once a common version of this questionnaire is agreed upon, it will be applied to a sample of each school community. Each school will gather its results and the Polish partner will treat them statistically. The conclusions will then be posted on the webpage depicting what might be called “A Young European of Today”.
Definition of the “European Time Capsule of Today’s Youngsters” - The Time Capsule this year will focus specifically on today’s teenagers in Europe as part of a globalized world. The methodology used will be similar to the one of the previous year. Each partner will build a proposal of a time capsule which can reflect what young Europeans consider relevant and representative of the time they are living in Europe. Again this proposal should address the following aspects:
1. Physical form of the capsule (e.g. a box, a CD, a collage…)
2. Topics to be included, not necessarily connected to any specific culture (e.g. books, music, free time occupations, technology/gadgets, environment…)
3. Number of topics/items to be included
Following this, a discussion amongst all partners will take place and an agreement will be reached regarding the common time capsule.
Building a “European Time Capsule of Today’s Youngsters” - Each partner will propose items for each topic, agreed previously, to be included in the time capsule. The items will be listed and posted on the webpage. A poll will be carried out amongst the students of all schools to select one item per topic. The final results will once again be posted on the webpage.
Explaining the relevance of their choices - Each partner will be responsible for providing information on one (or more) of the items voted to be included in the time capsule. This means that students will have to look for information that can justify the relevance of those items and explain why they think the items, in the future, will be considered representative of their generation.
Debate - Each school invites some adults (from inside and outside the school) to present what might be, in their view, the stereotyped version of today’s youngsters. In the end, students will present their own findings resulting from the questionnaire and compare them with the views of all participants. A debate about the similarities/differences will follow.
Project Meeting - (staff and students) hosted by the Italian partner in April/May, 2011. In this meeting each partner will share the information gathered on the items which will be included in their time capsule. Students will again work collaboratively in mixed groups in the building of a single common time capsule. Each group will be responsible for illustrating/representing one or more items. In the end the groups will assemble a common time capsule. Other activities of cultural and historical interest will also take place, for example visits and sessions to promote the local language. Other members of the school community, such as parents, will also be involved in the hosting/welcoming of students.
Itinerant exhibition - The “European Time Capsule of Today’s Youngsters” (in its final version resulting from the project meeting) will then circulate from partner school to partner school in an itinerant exhibition. In the end one of the schools will be named the guardian of the capsule to be opened in the future.

Activities 2009-2010
Project Meeting - (staff) hosted by the Portuguese partner in October, 2009.
Logo competition - Each school contributes with a suggestion, from the students, for a logo to the project. The proposals will then be voted by all schools and the winner becomes the “official” logo of our project. With this activity we intend to create a sense of identification of the students with the project.
Letter to our friends - Students/Classes involved will write a letter to present themselves to the rest of the partners. This will be posted on the webpage and on the bulletin board of the project in each school.
Presentation of the school+local community+country - Each school prepares a brief description to be posted on the webpage.
Definition of our “European Cross-time Capsule” - Our Time Capsule this year will be a cross-time one, since it will look at the whole experience of culture throughout time. Each partner will build a proposal of a time capsule which can reflect what young Europeans consider relevant and representative of their national contributions to European culture and the development of the world. This proposal should address the following aspects:
1. Physical form of the capsule (e.g. a box, a CD,…)
2. Topics to be included (e.g. Literature, History, Science, Sport, Philosophy, patrimony…)
3. Number of topics/items to be included
Following this, a discussion amongst all partners will take place and an agreement will be reached regarding the common time capsule.
Building a national proposal for the “European Cross-time Capsule” - Each partner will find a process, depending on its school characteristics, to develop the following aspects:
1. Research in each of the topics agreed before, guided by teachers of different subjects;
2. Selection of a representative for each of the topics agreed before;
3. Preparation of the items to be included in the time capsule;
4. Posting the results on the webpage.
Conference - Each partner will invite a guest of cultural relevance to talk with the students about their choices for the cross-time capsule.
Project Meeting - (staff and students) hosted by the Romanian partner in April/May, 2010. In this meeting students will work collaboratively in the building of thematic time capsules. Using the material from their national time capsules, students will work in mixed groups. Each group will be responsible for a common presentation/time capsule dedicated to a topic. For example, one group will deal with Literature and decide on how they are going to organize the presentation of each partner’s contribution. They will then present it to the school/local community. Other activities of cultural and historical interest will also take place, for example visits and sessions to promote the local language. Other members of the school community, such as parents, will also be involved in the hosting/welcoming of students.
Local exhibition - Each school organizes an exhibition to present its time capsule to the school/local community and the results of the meeting.

Summary
This partnership is composed of general secondary schools (students aged 15-19) from Portugal, Poland, Romania, Greece, Italy and Bulgaria. The construction of time capsules is the pretext to learn about European culture and to discover what young Europeans of today have in common.
This project also aims to deepen relationships amongst European countries; facilitate mobility in Europe; motivate students for school subjects and attitudes by providing a meaningful/concrete learning context.
To achieve these aims students will select items to be included in time capsules. They will do some research and explain their choices to their peers. Conferences, debates, exhibitions on the topics will be organized. The exchange of information and the building of final time capsules will be achieved through the use of ICT and the participation in project meetings.
Students will develop the activities within their school subjects and during regular classes, although some extra-curricular activities may also take place. Teachers from different subjects and students from different classes/courses will be involved to allow a wide representation of topics/items in the time capsules.
As end products, we will have time capsules with different materials to be exhibited, a webpage to post all the results and videos to document the activities.
