23456Although our pupils are quite accustomed to working on computers, in thisproject they have had the chance to combine ICT skills, studying new culturesand informing their French partners about their cultural traditions, country,living environments and personal interests. Exchanging opinions on films andwriting film reviews is a natural part of Film classes at our school. The flexiblecooperation between partner teachers as well as the other subject teachers hasbeen fundamental. We have been able to combine the content of manydifferent subjects together. The French partner class consists of pupils with veryinternational backgrounds, different skin, colour and religion. That has enrichedthe project even more.We believe that our pupils have realised how to use various types of media forreal and interesting learning. The mutual projects and discussions with ourpartner school have made it easy to understand different cultures and we hopethat our pupils can benefit from things they have experienced with theirFrench partners. Above all, they have learned that young people all overEurope have a lot in common.This project has made it possible for us to combine Film courses with ICT ina sensible way. It has also give pupils an opportunity to constantly strengthentheir computer skills. It is now easier for both teachers and pupils tounderstand different habits and cultures and accept diverse opinions.ICT teaching has become a sensible means of learning and exchanginginformation. It has become a natural part of the curriculum and hasencouraged the pupils to study during their free time as well.It is impossible to list everything the teachers and pupils have learned duringthis year. This project has had a positive influence on the whole school,especially in regards to our attitudes towards foreign countries and cultures.The pupils have also learned to appreciate their own traditions andenvironments and have learned a great deal about Film. We have alsoevaluated teaching methods, curriculum and results. Pupils have filled inquestionnaires and written short reports on various topics within the project.We are also happy to see that the project has continued even when the peopleresponsible have changed. In our comprehensive school, it’s easy to worktogether and share all the advantages of knowing the pupils for a long time.Class teachers work in close collaboration with subject teachers. This projectsuits our school’s motto perfectly: Roots in Sodankylä, eyes to the world.67

I registered on the eTwinning Portalin September 2005, and already in October there was an email in my inboxfrom my eventual colleague, Martine Masson, in France. Both our classes werenearly equivalent in number and age of pupils. To become acquainted witheach other, the first emails were exchanged in November, and in March 2006our eTwinning project started with our eJournal “Friendship”.This work turned out to be completely different from the usual classroomactivities not only in terms of means and material, but also in method, thus68
