Talking Cultures project celebrates cultural differences by giving teachers and students  an opportunity to compare British culture with their own.

It is a series of mini-rolling projects using an intercultural teacher’s pack containing ten units each one focussing on a specific area of culture. Each unit has a series of tasks that lead to the production of a wiki component (special online platform designed for students to upload their work and share it with a  class in another country/countries so that the students can discover a new culture.

Topics have been selected with a teenage audience in mind and are skills focussed to build up the confidence of the learners. A wide variety of activities and teaching techniques have also been incorporated to sustain interest in the project.

Teachers are provided with lesson plans that can be used as they are or adapted to suit their particular class. Also, some sections require the teacher or learners to do some research before submitting their mini project which allows a more personalized approach to topics.

Topics featured in the Talking Cultures pack are as follows:

			Our country
			Famous people
			Festivals
			Cartoon and animation
			Village life
			Music
			Holidays
			Sports
			Class biography

And some of the mini projects to be done by students:
