“I and the others: Discovering diversity around and within me”  

The secondary vocational school for business based in Příbram is going to participate in a project together with a partner school in the Slovak Republic, our topics is diversity, variety, dissimilarity or difference about living in the Czech and Slovak Republic. Czechs and Slovaks used to live in one country from 1918 to 1933. What is the reception of young people from both countries and their attitude to our common life in the past? Do they feel, we are the same or not? During the project we will concentrate on particular topics and analyse them in selected subjects. Every topic will be treated for one month and the result will be presented on the web. An important part of the project is a visit to both partner schools.
