Education
Ahlan wa sahlan! Welcome to the education section of our website. On these pages
you can have your say by getting involved in moderated, monthly discussions. You
can also test yourself with our quizzes, and take part in our polls.
Most importantly you will find twelve downloadable 40 minute lesson plans, written
by teachers, for teachers, for use in your citizenship/social studies lessons. The
lesson plans focus on defining culture, identifying causes of cultural misunderstanding,
examine the role of the media, and seek to identify causes of and solutions to extremism-we
hope you enjoy them. The plans will be converted into Arabic in 2009.
Finally you will be able to read the blogs of the next group of young people as
they prepare for the next Connecting Cultures journey in Oman in November 2009.
