Pandemics learning from history

Project information:Let's learn from history!
• We want to learn from history.
• We are not facing something new: the pandemic caused by COVID-19 has
references.
• In the Athens of Pericles (5th century BC),
• the Antonine Plague (2nd century AD),
• the Black Death in the 14th century,
• the Spanish flu "of 1918...
all of them can teach us thanks to knowing what happened, how it was acted, how
it was overcome...
• From the eyes of Myrtis a real girl from 430 B.C. in Athens,
• we will go into a pandemic initially;
• and we will go deeper into the three great pandemics of history.

Work process
• The work will be carried out in the Twinspace, above all. The students will work in mixed
international groups.
• 1) The characteristics of the different pandemics in history will be studied.
• 2) Students will work in groups and compare and seek solutions and recommendations to our
current reality.
• 3) The groups will play with the worked contents.
• There will be live events between the groups, both teachers (review and modification of the
programming above all) and students (communication and real synchronic collaboration)
• We will work with web 2.0 tools
• Sessions will be dedicated to the project as required, during school hours.
• The project will be integrated in the curriculum of the subject, evaluating the competences and
making use of rubrics.
• All the centres will be coordinated as much as possible in this aspect

Expected results
• The final product will be the Twinspace, where all the work done by the
students will have been added.
