Μάθημα : Exploring Cultures - Cultural guide

Read the instructions carefully and work in your team to prepare the presentation assigned.

Create a Cultural Guide about Culture

You will create an English-language Cultural Guide that introduces international visitors to your culture. Your guide should be clear, informative, and attractive for readers who are not familiar with your country.

Research and create, step by step

Research your culture by exploring books, websites, AI tools, and documentaries about your country. Check reliability of the sources.

The final assignment must be made by hand, from the text to the drawings. Digital tools can only be used during the brainstorm and preparation part, so embrace the opportunity to showcase your creativity.

Think about the layout of your guide. You will need to arrange both text and illustrations on each page.

Draw simple yet expressive illustrations that reflect the things you researched about your culture.

Write clearly and neatly. Focus on your handwriting. Your writing should complement the drawings and help explain the cultural insights you are presenting.
