Products I.Cultural promotion plan - Power Point presentations The idea to create presentations about partner countries, not about own countries was definitely perfect one as it engaged students in their work and was a kind of challenge. All students from Comenius team are responsible of this task. They are to prepare presentations about partners countries-How we see our partners from Turkey and Italy using historical, geographical, cultural and political sides. The presentations will be shown during Comenius Partners Meeting in Poland- May 2014. Our aim – every students engaged in the task is provided that they know the social and cultural sides of the two countries and we aim that these two countries will know about the social and cultural sides of each other as well. English Language Cross- cultural promotion has been ensured with help of students by establishing a dialogue. Geographical, historical, cultural, traditional, artistic structures of countries have been introduced mutually with universal English language and their language they use in actual conversations by sharing their sentence with each other and have established communication quite useful. Students have been relayed their lifestyle each other with subject headings ‘How we see Turkey and Italy’ at English and German lessons of I, II, II, IV grades in Technical College.
