Pyramid city

2009
Our first project "The World in 50 Years" has been launched by our teachers, Mr Gardeniers and Mr Gonzalez. We chose citylife as main subject. With that subject as main focus, we discussed different subtopics. We describe on our site our vision of the future, and we proposed new developments in different fields.

Team Collaboration

Carmen and Denyse used to be in another group, but when Anahita came in our class, in the beginning of the second half of the year, we decided to join her to form a new group. We didn't really have a leader, we decided everything together. In the beginning we thought a bit different about certain topics, but after a while we got used to each other and each others way of thinking.

Because our group had been formed a while after the other groups, we found difficulties in our planning. That's also the reason why we had to work very hard in the end to finish everything in time.We divided the tasks, so each one of us had to do the same amount of work.

The thing we found the most difficult was making the website itself. None of us had ever made a website, or had learned how to make one, and now we had to make a complete website on our own.

But fortunately, we finished everything just in time.

Team Diversity

Our team consists out of three members:

Anahita, a 15-year ol girl who was born in the Netherlands, but whose parents come from Azerbeidjan, Greece, and she has lived in Turkey for several years. Anahita is an atheist.

Carmen, a 15-year old girl, who has the Dutch nationality, but who has lived in Mexico, Gabon and Texas. Carmen is a christian.

Denyse, a 15-year old girl, who also has the Dutch nationality, but she has also lived in Ghana. Denyse is a roman-catholic
