==Project 1: The Herbarium at school == | ==Chapter 3 == | ||
===Introduction=== | |||
This chapter suggests, by way of example, four projects that could be achieved by | |||
combining certain activities (or affordances) of the XO. These are projects on | |||
deforestation, disease, cultural heritage and national languages. As you | |||
see, these projects cover various fields of study. Each project is presented | |||
according to a style, because it seemed more important to reflect a certain | |||
variety of possible actions to unify the presentation of projects. However, each | |||
proposed project follows the methodology suggested by Gregory and Laferrière | |||
(1998): | |||
