Enter here and you will find a vision of how life could be in the year 2100. Get ready for the future…….

After coming from Villinngen-Schwenningen we keep good memories. We remember all the thinhs we’ve done there. We visited Friburg and the Black Forest. We participated in the cooking Weokshop, we visited the museum and the Town Hall. We walked along the Moos , we went to the market adn made a big breakfast and the best was Europa park where we had great fun with our friends!

CHAPTER 1- Author: Lycée Rodin- Paris- Francia

A light flashed at the foot of Pedro749.es’s bed. “8 o’clock. Friday December 22nd 2200″. He opened his eyes. On the table, his breakfast was all set, waiting for him: a coffee patch and 2 capsules of raspberry jam. His clone had probably gone for fresh bread powder since the box was empty.

At the age of 22, Pedro749.es had only one son from his first marriage to Marie1212.fr. He has been raised by a mother from Martinique, an Austrian father, a Judeo-Turkish grandmother and a Chinese grandfather. He had one step-sister, a half-brother, an exfather-in-law and two mothers-in-law.

He was staying in Paris to study French, a language become extinct a hundred years before.

On his way out, he switched on the auto-suggesting headset which read his thoughts and started playing his favourite song. Suddenly, the song was replaced by a message from the authorities, repeatedly broadcast on every headset. “Warning! An asteroid is about to crash on Earth. All reference numbers ending in de. it. fr. and es. are to proceed immediately to emergency evacuation to Mars.”

He knew it. The leaders had fully organised the emergency transportation of the world population to two extra-terrestrial stations, one on the Moon, one on Mars. They were served by teleporters that they had all learned how to operate.

He rushed to the nearest Mars-bound teleporter, dialled the code and took off. A sudden jolt knocked him over.

When Pedro749.es came to, he quickly understood that his teleporter had broken down and that he was stuck between two worlds…

Chapter 2. Author:IPSSAR Vicenzo Telese - Ischia,Italia

Pedro 749 looks around , he tries to scan through his very powerful telescopic-glasses the old world between him and Mars. Nothing…

In the distance no life could be seen, only the vastness of a rarefied sky where he feels himself sinking.

His heart leaped…must relax…nothing’s lost! He searches for his luggage where he keeps his computer and his life- detector.

He keeps looking, but there’s no trace of his luggage. He starts sweating, he’s really alone! A human-wreck between two worlds. He perks himself up: he leaves the station and begins walking. Everything is wrapped up in a fluorescent fog, lighting prisms in rarefied atmosphere remind him one of those Christmas landscapes in old paintings dating back to the end of 18th century.

At his feet, sheets of crystalline rock, make the scenery impenetrable, as if he was trapped in a prison of light. He tries to see something more, he tries to understand if there is any sort of life but he’s completely blinded by the surreal light.
He manages to remain calm…he continues to walk…suddenly he sees some hills…a limpid little lake, lots of plants with very tiny green fruits. Tormented with hunger and curiosity he decides to taste one.

He bites it slowly and an extraordinary sensation of sweetness captures him.
Pedro 749’s shoes start twinkling, madly reeling for the thoughts that mass his mind.
“So if there’s water and vegetation, maybe there might also be human beings…?”

Chapter 3. Author:Gymnasium Am Deutenberg-Willingen-Swenningen. Alemania

Now the twinkling flashed to his bulge and at last up to his head. Suddenly Pedro749.es felt like he was in paradise, he saw a flowery meadow and a waterfall that fell from a mountain into a crystal clear lake, but then he couldn’t see anything because of the bright sparks.

This phenomenon took only a few nanoseconds but it changed everything: the bloom of the new world suddenly disappeared, and within a moment he could neither see any vegetation nor any evidence of life. Everything that had been beautiful and juicy before, now just turned into thousand quadrillions of dark-yellow, microscopically small crystals. He couldn’t even see or hear any signs of water. Actually he couldn’t hear anything…..There was nothing more left in this cruel world but this dead silence…..

Suddenly the ground began to shudder and an ear-splitting noise resounded. This awful noise sounded like the voice simulations from this huge creature in his history- laptop. The shaking became more and more intense and Pedro749.es could already see the cause of this “quake”. A herd of huge hairy monsters with king-size ears and a tube in the middle of their faces were running swiftly towards him.

Pedro749.es was shocked by this awful sight. His instinct told him to run away, but as there never had been something to run away from in his world before, he never learned the “science of running”….

Fortunately he remembered this very hilarious movie he had seen at a cinema museum, it was called “Run Fat Boy Run”. There the main character had to “run” to lose weight. Pedro749.es now tried to copy the movement of the actor’s feet and …….he really accomplished it!!! He was running, a human being from 2200 was running! He became so deeply absorbed in the thought of being the one and only knowing how to run in his century that he forgot to watch his way and fell down through a hole in the ground…………………………………….

Chapter 4. Author:IES Mata Jove-Gijón-ASturias- España

Pedro749.es fell in a deep and narrow hole. While he was falling down he wasn’t able to see anything. When he got to the bottom of the crater he could hear the strange monsters prowling around the place. He felt very nervous but he tried to keep silent. Pedro had the impression that they were looking for something; but, a little after, they walked away.

It was quite difficult for him to get out of that hole, but with the help of a branch, he managed to do it. Once he was outside, he decided to look for some kind of people or creatures friendlier than the monsters.
He began to walk and after a while, he saw in the distance a spacecraft. He approached it and walked around examining it from the outside. It was completely different to the ones he had already seen before: it was enormous, it seemed to be under strict surveillance- There were cameras everywhere- and it was equipped with the latest technology. After some time exploring it from the outside, he decided to get in.

When he was inside the spacecraft, he saw a little room. He entered it and saw a folder labelled: “Destruction of Planet Earth: Action completed “, “Collection of specimens (French, Italian, German and Spanish): Action FAILED” (we still need to capture the Spanish specimen: Pedro749.es).” While he was reading it he thought: “I must find them and they will help me to escape from this strange place.” He started to look for them in the spacecraft .

He looked everywhere and suddenly he saw a door on which he could read: “Specimens: Do not enter”. He didn’t think it twice. He went in and saw …..his European friends! They were trapped in glass cages so small and narrow that

they couldn’t move. Without hesitation, he began to release them, but he forgot the strict surveillance of the place. Suddenly, the monsters entered the room and…

CHAPTER 5- Lycée du Parc des Loges, Evry- France

Pedro scanned the room for a control panel to find a way to free his friends. The room was bare, futuristic and complex-looking, with a row of multicoloured flashing lights on one of the walls. He noticed a big red round button a little above the others. His friends were banging on the glass panes and mouthing things to him, egging him on.

He ran to the switch, and, without thinking, pressed the red button. There was a deafening sound, and the glass cages shattered. Red lights started flashing, and an automatic message started playing.“Danger, emergency autodestruction enabled. This is not a drill. Explosion of spacecraft in 5 minutes. Danger.” “Quick! Oh mon Dieu! Oh lala.” said Colette, the French specimen. “Mamma Mia! We need to get out of here! Giacomo, the Italian one said. The German girl, Silke, was still standing in the remains of the cage, trembling. Colette grabbed her hand and ushered her towards the exit. They all turned around to face the door, and gasped in horror as they realised that it was blocked in turn by enormous monsters in white cloaks. They were green, with enormous heads and pustules. They gave a huge roar, so horrible that it made Pedro’s hair stand on end. Silke whispered: “They are too big, we cannot fight against them, and we must find another way out.” Giacomo tugged at Pedro’s sleeve: “They can’t be very fast on their feet. I suggest we run and dart between their legs.” “Good idea”, replied Pedro, “Let’s do it! On the count of four. One. Two. Three. FOUR!” Thinking that it would probably be the last thing they’d do, they dashed towards the two monstrous figures and flung themselves between the creatures’ legs. “We did it!” Colette screamed, once they had made it to the other side. “Keep running!!” shouted Giacomo. They ran through the endless corridors, accompanied by an ear-splitting honk of the alarm, feeling the blazing fire above their heads, while the automatic voice started counting down: “Explosion occurring in 10 seconds.” “We have to get out of here!” screamed Silke. “Don’t stop running!” Pedro cheered her on. “We’re nearly there!” “Ten. Nine. Eight. Seven.” “Quick!” “Six. Five.” The group had at last reached the exit. They sprinted towards the door. “Four. Three.” Pedro reached this hand to grab the doorhandle. “Two.” He flung the door open and jumped out. “One” FLASH! A light hqd flashed, blinding them all. It was as though time had stopped. All was white behind them. Pedro briefly wondered if he was dead, and if this was heaven. Then he lost consciousness.“You escaped!” The group was awakened by a shriek. Slowly, Pedro opened his eyes and discovered where they had appeared. They were lying on the ground, surrounded by people. Colette, dazed and shaking, patting the young woman whowas hugging her. “Oh Colette! You made it! I thought I’d never see you again!” “What happened? Where are we?” she replied. The dark-haired girl let go of Colette and turned to face them all. “You all have emergency transport designs on your databracelets. They only activate at very high temperature though. Didn’t you guys ever pay attention in Cyb-Class?” she said, giggling nervously.Suddenly Pedro realised why this face looked so familiar “Marie?” The young woman beamed at him. “You took your time. I guess being chased into an explosion and being teleported to another planet makes you a little slower on the uptake!” She looked at him, laughing. “You know my sister?” puzzled Colette. “You know, I hate to break up the happy reunion.” said Giacomo, standing up gingerly and brushing invisible specks of dust off his pristine white cargo pants, “but where the hell are we?” Marie stood up, taking Pedro’s hand as she rose. “Earth has been destroyed, but we all had the time to redirect the population on Mars. The National Virtual Security planted our whole capital here; they are now downloading the rest or the world’s constructions that they had kept in their database. We can start over again. As she said this, she took Pedro’s hand and lifted it up to her heart. A new life was about to begin, and this time it didn’t have to be virtual.

THE END

CAPITULO 1: Lycée Rodin- Paris.

Un éclair clignota au pied du lit de Pedro749.es. « Huit heures. Vendredi 22 décembre 2200 ». Il ouvrit les yeux. Sur la table était préparé son petit déjeuner : un patch de café et deux gélules de confiture de framboise. Sans doute son clone était-il allé chercher de la poudre de pain frais car la boîte était vide.A 22 ans, Pedro749.es avait seulement un fils de sa première union avec Marie1212.fr. Elevé par une mère martiniquaise, un père autrichien, une grand-mère judéo-turque et un grand-père chinois, il avait une sœur par alliance, un demi-frère, un ex-beau-père et deux belles-mères.

Il résidait à Paris pour étudier le Français, une langue morte depuis cent ans.

En sortant de chez lui, il alluma son casque auto-suggestif qui lut ses pensées et lui passa sa chanson préférée. Tout à coup la musique laissa place au message des autorités, diffusé en boucle sur tous les casques : « Alerte ! Un astéroïde va s’écraser sur Terre ! Evacuation immédiate sur Mars de tous les matricules terminés par de, it, fr et es ! »

Il le savait. Les dirigeants avaient tout prévu pour transporter en urgence la population mondiale sur deux stations extra-terrestres : l’une se trouvait sur la Lune, l’autre sur Mars. Elles étaient desservies par des téléporteurs qu’ils avaient tous appris à conduire.

Il se précipita dans le téléporteur qui le conduirait sur Mars, composa le code, et décolla. Soudain, une violente secousse le renversa.

Quand Pedro reprit connaissance, il comprit vite que son téléporteur était en panne et qu’il était coincé entre deux mondes….

CAPITULO 2: IPPSSAR VICENZO TELESE- ISCHIA- ITALIA

Pedro 749 si guarda intorno, cerca di scrutare con i suoi potentissimi occhiali-cannocchiale, l’antico mondo che ha lasciato e Marte. Niente.
In lontananza nessuna forma vivente, solo il vuoto e il cielo rarefatto in cui si sente sprofondare.
Un tonfo al cuore. Calma. Non tutto è perso . Cerca il suo bagaglio dove c’è il suo computer e i suoi rilevatori di vita.
Si guarda intorno, ma del suo bagaglio neanche l’ombra. Comincia a sudare, è proprio solo, un relitto tra i due mondi. Si dà coraggio, esce dalla stazione e comincia a camminare, il tutto è come avvolto in una nebbia fluorescente, prismi di luce nell’aria rarefatta gli ricordano uno di quei paesaggi natalizi scoperti in un vecchio dipinto della fine del 900.
Ai suoi piedi, lastre di roccia cristallina rendono il paesaggio impenetrabile, è come se lui fosse intrappolato in una gabbia di luce. Cerca di scorgere qualche particolare in più per capire se vi sono forme di vita, ma è completamente abbagliato da questa luce surreale.
Riesce a mantenere la calma. Inizia a camminare, e all’improvviso vede delle collinette, un piccolo laghetto limpido e tante piante con frutti verdi molto piccoli. Spinto dalla fame e dalla curiosità decide di assaggiarne uno.
Lo assapora pian piano e un dolce straordinario si impadronisce di lui.
Le scarpe di Pedro 749 iniziano a lampeggiare come se fossero impazzite per il turbinio di pensieri che navigano nella sua mente.
“Se vi è l’acqua e vegetazione, forse ci saranno anche degli essere viventi?”

CAPITULO 3: GYMNASIUM AM EUTENBERG- VILLINGENN - SWENNINGEN- ALEMANIA

Jetzt stieg das Funkeln an seinem Körper hoch, von den Füßen zu seinem Bauch und schließlich bis zum Kopf. Plötzlich fühlte sich Pedro749.es wie im Paradies, er sah eine Blumenwiese und einen Wasserfall, der von einem Berg in einen kristallklaren See stürzte. Dann konnte er nichts mehr erkennen, weil die Helligkeit der Funken ihn blendete.

Dieses Phänomen dauerte nur einige Nanosekunden, aber es hatte alles verändert:

Die Schönheit der neuen Welt war plötzlich verschwunden, jetzt gab es weder eine Spur von Vegetation noch von Leben. Alles, was vorher wunderschön und reizvoll gewesen war, hatte sich in Billiarden dunkelgelber, mikroskopisch kleiner Kristalle verwandelt. Sogar das Plätschern des Wassers konnte er nicht mehr hören. Jetzt konnte er gar nichts hören… In dieser schrecklichen Welt war nichts mehr übrig außer einer Todesstille…

Plötzlich begann der Boden zu beben und ein ohrenbetäubendes Geräusch ertönte. Genau wie das Geräusch der Vorzeitmonster aus seiner Computersimulation, fiel es ihm plötzlich ein. Das Beben wurde immer stärker und Pedro749.es konnte jetzt sehen, woher es kam. Eine Herde riesiger, haariger Ungeheuer mit übergroßen Ohren und einem seltsamen Rohr mitten in ihren Gesichtern lief schnell auf ihn zu.

Pedro749.es war von diesem schrecklichen Anblick geschockt. Sein Instinkt sagte ihm, dass er weglaufen müsse, doch wie sollte er das anstellen? Da es keine Gefahren in seiner Welt mehr gab, vor denen man fliehen musste, hatte er die “Wissenschaft des Rennens” nie erlernt…

Glücklicherweise konnte er sich an den Film “Run, fat boy, run” erinnern, den er einmal in einem Filmmuseum gesehen hatte. Dort musste die Hauptperson “rennen”, um Gewicht zu verlieren. Jetzt versuchte er die Bewegungen des Schauspielers nachzuahmen und….er schaffte es! Er konnte rennen, ein Mensch aus dem Jahre 2200 konnte rennen! Er verlor sich in der Vorstellung, dass er der einzige Mensch in seinem Jahrhundert war, der laufen konnte, vergaß dabei auf den Weg zu schauen und fiel durch ein Loch im Boden…

CAPITULO 4: IES MATA JOVE-GIJÓN ASTURIAS- ESPAÑA

Pedro749.es cayó en un agujero estrecho y medianamente profundo. Mientras iba cayendo no consiguió ver nada. Una vez llegado al fondo del cráter, pudo oír a los extraños monstruos merodeando la zona. Se puso nervioso, pero intentó permanecer en silencio. A Pedro le daba la sensación de que estaban buscando algo; pero pronto se alejaron.
Salió de allí, con dificultades, ayudado por una rama. Una vez fuera, decidió buscar algún tipo de vida más amistosa que los monstruos.

Comenzó a caminar y al poco tiempo pudo descubrir a lo lejos una nave. Se acercó a ella y desde fuera la examinó. No se parecía en nada a las que él había visto hasta entonces: era demasiado grande, parecía poseer extrema vigilancia (había cámaras en todos los sitios) y estaba dotada de una tecnología muy avanzada. Después de la exploración exterior decidió entrar.

Una vez dentro, vio una pequeña sala, se adentró en ella y encontró unos archivos que decían: “destrucción del planeta Tierra: Acción completada”, “recopilación de ejemplares (franceses, italianos, alemanes y españoles): Acción fallida (falta capturar el ejemplar español: Pedro749.es)”. Al leer esto pensó: “Debo encontrarlos y ellos me ayudarán a abandonar este extraño sitio”.

Buscó por toda la nave, hasta que encontró una puerta que decía: “Ejemplares. Prohibido el paso”. Sin pensarlo, entró y vio a sus compañeros europeos. Estaban atrapados en unas cristaleras de tamaño reducido que les impedían moverse. Sin dudarlo, empezó a liberarlos; pero no se acordó de la extrema vigilancia que poseía la nave. De repente, los monstruos entraron en la sala y….

We have good memories..…

Publicado por BLANCA el 20 Noviembre 2007

During the year 2006-07 we shared a lot of experiences , we got to know each other, we worked, and we enjoyed with all the activities planned in our meeting in Germany, and later receiving here our German friends. Here are some photos to remember…

Friburg Villingen-Schweningen

The mine The school Ice skating

.

Welcome to the future.…..

Publicado por BLANCA el 2 Abril 2008

Enter here and you will find a vision of how life could be in the year 2100. Get ready for the future…….

We will always keep the good memories…. This photos are just to remember the good moments we all comenius people shared We’ve done so many things in just a short time!! The Prehistoric Cave, the flea market, the Recycling Plant, the dancing, the drumas, the project…..

We’ve almost finished our school year andwe got all the things ready. Here are some examples of our “products”.

During this year we have produced…..

N. 1. Stickers

With the idea of protecting our environment and save it for the future a lot of stickers were designed by our students.

The winner was the one drawn by Rafael Rosario Rodriguez , student of 4th. diver class. It was our LOGO for making Comenius students aware of the necessity of preserving our world and it was given to all of them during theplanting of the trees in our school .

N. 2: Posters

During the school year, students from ESO classes including the younger ones, made fantastic posters and banners used some of them later to decorate our school for the Comenius Meeting and carrieda lot of them to Germany to decorate the GErman school during our visit.

The Comenius students from the different countries, brought posters from their schools and they were placed in the walls of our IEs so everybody could learn something oabout our friends abroad. Here are some examples.

N. 3 Radio programme

With the collaboration and help of the CIJ in La Calzada a group of students learnt to set up a radio programme. They attended a training course and prepared the scheme of a radio programme about the future dealing with topics such as music, environment, violence,… During the Meeting, on April 15th. Iván Avín, Pablo Nogueiro, Pelayo Díaz Valeria Campos y Jennifer Meana, from classes, 4ºA and 4ºB organised the programme where two students from each school were interviewed.

It was emitted on the net on May 13th. at www.radiooeste.net at 6:30pm.

If you want to listen to it now, enter here and be ready for 30 minutes of real “European communication”…

N. 4 Objects guidebook

Month after month, all the schools have looked for objects still in use today but which seem to have a short life and will be forgotten and buried by the year 2100. We’ve collected them imaginig we are living in 2100 and we tried to guesss their possible uses.

We have worked on the net and during the Meeting in Gijón we completed the investigation with a visit to the “Flea Market”. The result of ur investigation is this book. Here is the cover. To see the objects on the net, enter the object page

N. 5. Certificates

Each participant, student or teacher and each collaborator with this project, received a certifiate designed by our school. After our visit to Germany, The Gymnasium Am Deutenberg also gave us the certificates otf attendance. Here are both.

N.6. Leaflets

With the aim of thanking every person and institution that has helped us and with the idea of getting more people involved in the project we designed a leaflet with information about European projects ansd specifically with the activities of “The Time Machine”.

N. 7 The story of Pedro 749.es

This story written in common by all Comenius students during the school year can be read in English or in the different languages of our students. Go to number 12 to read the story in English.

N.8. photos and videos

We have finished a DVD with all our photos, and videos of our great Meeting , Gijon 2008. We sent copies to our friends.

N.9. Disemination

Our local Newspaper has published a whole page related to ur project. It was

“La nueva España” on May 31st , section:”Mas Gijón”

We also appear regularly on our school paper:”La voz del Mata” on the net and will have a whole page on the paper edition.

We cannot forget the radio Programme and the T-shirts that showed our LOGO and were given to all students during the Meeting and filled the school and the area with the”Comenius spirit”

N.10: This blog you are reading….

N.11: T-Shirts

The fantastic Comenius T-shirts we used durinfg our eeting, specially during the Communication Workshop.

N.12: Here is the story ..of Pedro 749.es

CHAPTER 1- Author: Lycée Rodin- Paris- Francia

A light flashed at the foot of Pedro749.es’s bed. “8 o’clock. Friday December 22nd 2200″. He opened his eyes. On the table, his breakfast was all set, waiting for him: a coffee patch and 2 capsules of raspberry jam. His clone had probably gone for fresh bread powder since the box was empty.

At the age of 22, Pedro749.es had only one son from his first marriage to Marie1212.fr. He has been raised by a mother from Martinique, an Austrian father, a Judeo-Turkish grandmother and a Chinese grandfather. He had one step-sister, a half-brother, an exfather-in-law and two mothers-in-law.

They ran through the endless corridors, accompanied by an ear-splitting honk of the alarm, feeling the blazing fire above their heads, while the automatic voice started counting down: “Explosion occurring in 10 seconds.” “We have to get out of here!” screamed Silke. “Don’t stop running!” Pedro cheered her on. “We’re nearly there!” “Ten. Nine. Eight. Seven.” “Quick!” “Six. Five.” The group had at last reached the exit. They sprinted towards the door. “Four. Three.” Pedro reached this hand to grab the doorhandle. “Two.” He flung the door open and jumped out. “One” FLASH! A light hqd flashed, blinding them all. It was as though time had stopped. All was white behind them. Pedro briefly wondered if he was dead, and if this was heaven. Then he lost consciousness.“You escaped!” The group was awakened by a shriek. Slowly, Pedro opened his eyes and discovered where they had appeared. They were lying on the ground, surrounded by people. Colette, dazed and shaking, patting the young woman whowas hugging her. “Oh Colette! You made it! I thought I’d never see you again!” “What happened? Where are we?” she replied. The dark-haired girl let go of Colette and turned to face them all. “You all have emergency transport designs on your databracelets. They only activate at very high temperature though. Didn’t you guys ever pay attention in Cyb-Class?” she said, giggling nervously.Suddenly Pedro realised why this face looked so familiar “Marie?” The young woman beamed at him. “You took your time. I guess being chased into an explosion and being teleported to another planet makes you a little slower on the uptake!” She looked at him, laughing. “You know my sister?” puzzled Colette. “You know, I hate to break up the happy reunion.” said Giacomo, standing up gingerly and brushing invisible specks of dust off his pristine white cargo pants, “but where the hell are we?” Marie stood up, taking Pedro’s hand as she rose. “Earth has been destroyed, but we all had the time to redirect the population on Mars. The National Virtual Security planted our whole capital here; they are now downloading the rest or the world’s constructions that they had kept in their database. We can start over again. As she said this, she took Pedro’s hand and lifted it up to her heart. A new life was about to begin, and this time it didn’t have to be virtual.
