Furthermore there have always been movements from one country to the other by individuals for private purposes like visits or holidays. However, the number of migrants (emigrants and immigrants) has increased a lot over the recent years and due to this increase in migration discussions in society about topics like integration, cultural values etc. have deepened heavily. The changes that European states are confronted with have been enormous. At schools these alterations can be seen when looking at the increasing cultural diversity that classes nowadays have and the rising heterogeneity in performance within classes. The main topic of the project is to analyse to what extent the flow of visitors and migrants has influenced the culture of the home and of the host country in the past and to show that these changes have become a natural and positive feature of our lives. This will be done by an exchange of experiences during former holidays, a look into migration patterns within the family and the local community and by looking at how culture (music and food) has been influenced by migration. The project wants to help increase mutual understanding by showing the positive effects these migration patterns have and by confronting the students with foreign cultures and understandable motives for migration. The usage of digital devices like smartphones or tablets to make pupils aware of the flow of migration and the cultural variations makes sense as digitalisation is promoted intensely by politics and society on the one hand and will definitely increase pupils´ enthusiasm for the project as new apps and programmes offer many interesting possibilities of visualisation and sharing information.
