This is general feedback to the group that already did 'Identity' with me:
I have seen some really excellent work on a lot of these pages! I have earmarked a few new pages for myself too and enjoyed the many videos, quotes and reflections. It is truely amazing how many resources can be found when so many work together. Well done!
I have given brief individual feedback on your own 'Identity' page. You should read the excellent pages prepared by other people, and I can particularly recommend:
Aimee and Emma's resources produced in Nortern Ireland for teachers to use and reflections including the Convention on the Rights of the Child. Emma likes Dr. Seuss and the Sneetches - so do I.
Alicia's choice of films, a must
Anders' selction of resources including a wonderful TED talk by an interesting woman from Quatar
Andrea's videos on multicultural educuation, including James Banks's definitions
Anna's actitivies, wonderful video on communication with babies, Elmar and a German song
Annelies's Dutch song and her recommendations of the Labels game (would love to do that one)
Christina's link to Global Kids and the website which has a collection of other sites.
Hassan's thorough descriptions and his selection of videos, not least the 'Take a Seat and Meet a Friend - in a ball pit' which I think we should establish at UCC
Helene's songs - and she managed to find a description of the Greeting Game we did at the Hostel (some of us) as well as part of a book with more games
Jane's page on Kid World Citizen and video from the Diversity Centre
Kristina's activities and nice books for children
Lasma's resources and reflections
Victoria's presentation slides and video on QUIMS schools in Switzerland.
Do you all know that you can create playlists on YouTube? Why not create a playlist for yourself on identity, culture and globalization that you can use in the future - and share with others? You can also create your own channel and upload videos yourself....

If you have NOT had individual feedback from me, you have either not done the class yet (but will soon) OR you have not completed your blog page (but will soon!!). If I have ignored you even though you have actually done your page, please let me know.
