Four Season Bliss
2009
The purpose of our research was to identify the youth’s knowledge concerning both traditional and imported customs celebrated in Romania. Also, we wished to find out the teenagers’ opinion on the importance and significance of the customs and in what measures are they celebrated by the locals.
We tried to analyze the conceptions that were revealed through the final results of our questionnaires . Our project was thought to be a tocsin for preventing the traditional Romanian customs from being forgotten.

Team Collaboration
The whole project took about 3-4 months to finish. In the first stage, we gathered information about our traditional customs and translated it in the languages we needed. All four members took part in this stage, to eventually think the structural part of the site through. Hrihor Adrian took care of the website design, Băleanu Teodora, Gherman Alexandra and Moisoc Andreea made the interviews, the questionnaire and looked up photos for the galleries. Mrs Coaja Gabriela was the coordinator of the project, and helped us fulfill our purpose.
Team Diversity
Our project included a lot of people, especially from our school. We are going to mention a few people: Mrs. Boţig Narcise, psychology teacher, gave an interview in which we asked her about the psychological aspects of superstitions and traditional customs, and also helped us evaluate the questionnaire. Mrs. Bujdei Anca, arts teacher, helped us with paintings and photos that we needed for the exposition. Mrs. Cîrciu Loredana, English teacher, helped us with the translating.
