This year as part of the Psychico College “A World Without Borders” celebration, two MS1 EFL classes worked on a power point presentation at the library on the countries of the Mediterranean as part of their English lesson. Students were not only taught how to use the PowerPoint program, but also how to find information on the internet and transform it into a PowerPoint slide.
Students were required to design three slides as part of the actual celebration. The first contained a flag and map of their allocated country, another contained some general information on it and a third included a photograph which they considered to reflect the beauty of this nation.
The following presentation is the collective product of the labor of these students and was presented during the celebration to their peers.
Finally we would strongly like to thank all the staff at the library for their patience and help in guiding students with the use of these technologies and in creating this presentation.
