"What are the problems in my country?"

The biggest problem in Austria at the moment is I think that so many people are trying to come to the country and hoping to start a better life. Most of the people who are coming are of course refugees, people who are escaping from their own countries because of war, danger and fear. Mostly the reasons of the wars are religion or other political reasons.Very often these people have lost everything they had and the only thing they could keep is their hope of a better life or at least a life without fear. The real problem in this situation is that there are more and more people coming every single day but we don´t have enough supplies and especially money to support all these people. Moreover most of the people who are coming plan to stay in austria forever what is not possible because of the missing workplaces.  


Another problem from the same topic, witch in my opinion is even more tough than the first one is that we can not decide anymore witch of the refugees really need our help and witch group of people just want to get a better and more enjoyable life in Austria. Additionally at the moment it is plenty easy for terrorist to get into the country without getting catched. And I think that is also the reason why the number of terrorist-attacks are increasing. Even in a small city like Graz (my hometown) the violence is getting more because these people are not alowed to work in austria during the process of naturalication. Sometimes it is more difficult than we think it is when so many different cultures and particularly different views of life (for example religion, politics,... ) are meeting and trying to get along with each other. 

Another big problem we have in Austria is the increasing rate of unemployed people. Is is getting harder every year to find a good job because the older people are not able to vacate the jobs for the younger once because sometimes they have to continue working till they are 65 years old or even older. So it comes that the older people have to work longer and the young once have to wait till there are free places for work and than fight for this places.

What triggers students to create ePortfolios? International seminar to share innovative Europan practices General overfew: The seminar started with some welcoming words from Pedro Dominguinhos the President of the Instituto Politécnico de Setúbal. He showed us the schedule of the Seminar and introduced the different visitors to us. After that Ana Luisa Oliveira Pires and Marja Laurikaninen explained the EEP project a little bit.  Schedual: “What students want?” was the first part of the presentation and it was very interesting for me.   They interviewed a lot of students about this topic and also worked with them on this seminar. Some of the examples came from Ireland and it was interesting to see how the Irish students are thinking about this topic. Most of the interviewed students were talking positive about it and they think it is very useful for their education. I really like the idea of “progressing construction of learning” and I also think that ...

Video: Jermila´s Story A step forward: Jermila was the oldest of 13 kids and her mother was 13 when she was pregnant with her (she always said that 13 was her magic number). They where poor and Jermila started to steal some things from grocery stores. When she told her mother she wasn´t angry with her. Instead of that she took the things and went back to the store to get the money for the food and gave some of the money to Jermila. Jermila also started to steal from the mall next to her house. She returned all of the things to get the money for that and buy some food for her family becuase they didn´t have enought food for all of the family members. She was hiding the rest of the money from her parents.  One night when she was walking on the streets, a guy grap her hand and put a knife into her throught. She tryed to talk him out of that, but she didn´t won. After that she ran away from anybody and because nobody supported her, her crimes got bigger until she went to the p...
