                              na¹í vesnice) | 3 hours (3 times 45 minutes)Date: 5th May.2008 |  1. A description of the activities
                            undertaken during the unit, including comments on
                            the reactions of the group/individual participants a. The activity reacts on the interest
                          of the participants to present Roma traditional and
                          nontraditional cuisine to the public
 b. Discussion - talking about the needs
                    of the group in this field, listning to the suggestions of
                    the participants - for example on creating Roma cook book.
 
 c. We focused on the needs of the group.
                    We discussed not only Roma food but also a Czech cuisine.
                    The cook book uncovered many untraditionall recepies, however
                    we are not planning to use them in the Roma cookbook that
                    we plan. This book will only serve as a concept of structure
                    to the cookbook.
 Many of the participants came with their own recepies , which nobody else had
  heard of. The decided it woíuld be the best to start with traditional Roma
  food , that was why we started with the recepy on "marikle".
 
 d. The group concluded that at the next
                    session they will use the computer to puit the recepy into
                    the written form. This enables the participants to be learning
                    the basdics on the computer at the same time.
 
 e. The next seminar was scheduled for 9th
                    May 2008
 2. Was the aim of the unit
                            achieved (the implementation of practical skills
                            and the pedagogical aim)? All the attendees participated on discussion and explained
                          to the others their suggestions on the food which should
                          be included in the planned cookbook. We could detect
                          the differences in the way of presentation of the idea
                          in front of the public (the rest of the group), some
                          participants espressed their thoughts more coherently
                          asnd briethly than others ,however overall, each of
                          the participants was able to give a detailed explanation
                          to the nature of the food and the recepy in a way so
                          everzbody else understood it.We did not try the ability of the participants to put the thoughts in writing
  because that task is scheduled for the next session.
 Very important was the decision on creating Roma cookbok,
                          because that will mean we will gradually be working
                          on developing key competencies - expressing of the
                          ideas in native language on the upcoming sessions. 3. Other remarks (for example
                            on the group and the interaction between artistic
                            and educational elements)       |
