INTRODUCTION
"Visit Seville" is a project that includes a school day trip to Seville. It will take place in the second week back after the Christmas holidays. The main objective of the project is to interact with the many tourists that visit our city and to provide them with some information about the most important landmarks: "La Torre del Oro, Giralda, Puente de Triana, Reales Alcáceres, La Catedral, el Barrio de Santa Cruz y el Patio de banderas."
WHAT TO DO
The first thing you need to do is open a new "page" on your google site and label it "Visit Seville". Your will later create a QR and paste it onto your tourist brochure. The tourists you interview will be able to scan this QR and visit your site and see the photos and videos you include of this activity.
STEP 1. DAY ONE, TWO AND THREE
1.1 Choose a landmark (tourist attraction) for every group of the class and do a summary including the main facts about it. When was it built? what for? who built it? why? what was it used for? etc.. This Summary will be printed together with a photo of the monument and given to the tourists as a souvenir. You may include the URL of your Google Site so that they can later see the photos and videos of the interview.
1.2 Write an interview in which you may find out whether the tourists know about the information you are about to give them. The interview will have ten questions and at the bottom of the interview you must write answers to these questions. You will read the questions to the interviewees and film their answers. All the interviews will be placed on this page and used by the rest of the class (see below). If they do not know the answers, you will provide them. Don't forget to share your interview with me via Google Drive so that I can post it here. Remember to make the google doc "public".
Excuse me, please!1.3 Make a brochure and include photos and summaries of the monument(s) you have researched about. Include a QR code so that the tourists can contact you and see the final product of this project (a video and photo gallery)
STEP 2.
2.1 Our Visit to Seville. Every group will start the interviews at the monument or landmark they have chosen, they will film (use your mobiles if you don't have a camera) two interviews minimum and write down their answers. When you have finished, move to the next landmark and continue to do so until you have completed at least four landmarks with two interviews in each one of them.
-Make sure:
. you've taken photos of each group of tourists
. you change interviewer for every group
. You record the sound properly
. You give them the souvenir at the end of the interview
STEP 3
3.1. Make a video (at home) with the best moments of the interviews, include the names, nationalities and other important information of the people you have met. This video will be uploaded to your google Site and later shown to the class. You will do a little presentation where you will give us details, and anecdotes about your encounters with our foreign friends.
STEP 4
4.1 Present your project to the class.
