A day without technology in Slovenia

The 21st of December 2018 was very special for our school. We had a day without technology- ˝IZŠTEKANI˝ or ˝UNPLUGGED˝. And when the no-phone rule is on for our students at all times, even teachers and staff had to obey it and put our classic lessons aside because all computers and projectors were turned off. And instead of grammar rules and equations, lessons were focused on socialising without our everyday devices and what our lives would look like without technology today.

Our students had different opinions:

I think it's good because we can spend our time in a different way without technology.

I don't really see the difference.

In my opinion it's pretty interesting and fun, we could have days like this more often.

I like that day because we can see how our everyday lessons would look without computers and other devices that make them easier.

The responses were overall very good and our students are looking forward to repeating the project next year or even making it a monthly thing.

FRIDAYS FOR FUTURE IN LJUBLJANA

On Friday, 15th of March we went to Congress Square because there was a protest against increasing of climate change, that was organised by Slovenian teenagers and young adults. The project was started by Greta Thunberg in Sweden. She stopped attending school on Fridays and she didn’t plan to come back until The Swedish Government did something about climate change and pollution. Soon her friends and other teenagers all over the world started to join her. The 15th of March 2019 was the day people from more than 100 countries gathered and protested for better future. In Ljubljana there were more than 9 thousand protesters. We interviewed a few people that attended the protest.

WEDNESDAY 20/03/2019 & WEDNESDAY 27/03/2019 Last Wednesday, we finished making the leaflets about sensitizing the world and changing our habits in order to be more eco-friendly in both Greek and English.

Both the leaflets and the outcome of our research will be at your command very soon. Hold your breaths! 😉 Writers: Lida & Melina
