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...

What did I learned during that project: I have never done something like that before because the work with the computer was to confusing for me. The only things I used with the computer were "Google" and "Microsoft Word and PowerPoint". For me it was very fascinating to be a part of the process of creating a game like this. I also really like the fact that with "scratch" you can create your individual games. I enjoyed the work with scratch and I am really impressed about the result. You can also use this tool to work with children and I am sure that every single child will love to work in their own way. Additionally it promotes the creativity of the children and the result also supports the learning process.

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 ...

Elisabeth Elisabeth Eugenie Amalie, genannt Sisi, wurde am Weihnachtsabend des Jahres 1837 als Tochter des Herzog Max in Bayern und der bayrischen Königstochter Ludovika (Schwester von Erzherzogin Sophie) in München geboren. Da ihre Eltern keine offiziellen Verpflichtungen am Königshof hatten, konnte die Familie in ihrem kleinen Schloss Possenhofen am Starnberger See ein unbeschwertes Leben führen. Hier verlebte Sisi mit ihren sieben Geschwistern eine glückliche, sorgenfreie Kindheit. Da die junge Prinzessin zwanglos spielen, toben, reiten und sogar bayrischen Dialekt sprechen durfte, glich Sisi in ihrer Jugend eher einem Landkind als einer Prinzessin. Ihre Mutter Ludovika, Tochter des bayrischen Königs Maximilian I., hatte als einzige der drei Schwestern nicht in eine königliche Familie eingeheiratet. Ihr Mann Max war Wittelsbacher und bekam durch die Hochzeit den Titel „Herzog in Bayern” zuerkannt. Während er in typisch Wittelsbacher Manier freiheitsliebend und exze...
