Open Street Map (Foligno - Italy)

Open Street Map creates and provides free geographic data such as street maps to anyone who wants them. The project was started because most maps you think of as free actually have legal or tecnichal restrictions on their use, holding back people from using them in creative and pruductive ways.
Our class, while preparing the Comenius meeting  in Foligno, had an Open Street Map laboratory  in order to create an orientation map for our foreigner guests.

Seeds & Plants (Natural Park "S'albufera d'Es Grau" - Menorca)


Dear teachers and students!
From Spain we (my students and me) are working since 3 weeks about the project of seeds. Last week we went to Albufera d’Es Grau Natural Park, one day with a class group and another day with the other class group. We have collected seeds from natural ecosystems in Menorca: sand dune ecosystems, pine forest, some bush ecosystems and wetlands. At the same time we are studying floristic composition and ecosystem structure. The students have taken pictures from each plant, with flowers and fruits. At the laboratory we are treating the seeds, we are extracting seeds from fruits and we are putting them in paper envelopes. At the computer class we are looking for the scientific name and the popular name in Portuguese, Spanish, Catalan, English, Polish, Italian, French and Turkish language.
I think everything will be ready in 2 weeks. At the beginning of December, we will send the seeds to Portugal. Bruno, is it ok to you? Or do you think it is too late? Working with students is so slow!! But they are learning a lot!!! I’m very glad!! They are working hard and hopefully. And they are waiting to go to Ferreira do Zezere to see the garden and to meet all of you!

Best wishes!
Paula
