IF YOU FEEL YOU ARE ABLE TO SUPPORT ANY PART OF THIS INITIATIVE PLEASE CONTACT ONE OF THE TEAM
DRIL is seeking to look at collaborative distance working from the students’ perspective and to engage them in the process of identifying and evaluating software tools and systems that enable them to pariticipate effectively and efficiently in a disperse collaborative group.

And

DRIL is looking to see what support and guidance the students call upon to help them manage to work effectively in a team that is multi-cultural / lingual and in different time zones. Dealing with time management, multitasking, people skills, coping with conflict and how to negotiate.

And

DRIL would like to teach some basic language skills to the students – within a masterclass format using a WORKING vocabulary sufficient to complete / understand the tasks – in Estonian Icelandic and Latvian.

So

DRIL is mixing life and work skills with Business English competences and learning about student preferences in the tools used / offered.

There’s more . .

To reflect the cultural diversity and similarity of the region, DRIL is offering content that is drawn from Art [of the sea], Music and Food that highlights the region’s diversity but that also illustrates common heritage. Drawing strength from our similarities and inspiration from our differences.

WHAT THE DRIL TEAM IS LOOKING FOR

·         PEOPLE WHO KNOW FOLK DANCE

·         PEOPLE WHO KNOW TRADITIONAL FOLK SONGS [ESPECIALLY FROM THE SEAFARERS]

·         PEOPLE WHO KNOW HOW TO DEMONSTRATE THE COOKING OF TRADITIONAL FOODS [in a kitchen – or as the hunters do]

and who could give a demonstration / teach-in to a group of 18 students aged 16 – live [ideal] or if it must be via ZOOM / GOOGLE or MICROSOFT meeting tool as a webinar. Ideally we would like them to learn a song, learn a dance and learn how to cook a traditional meal. The session would need to be planned and delivered so the time commitment would be that.

It may be you who could join us in delivering this project or maybe you know someone who would be interested – if so please get in touch
