Identity

My identity pie chart.In my local community i have ( friends, family, studies, work).In national community (national team Latvia, language: latvian, russian, polish, english, Christianity.Transnational community ( travelling, internet, reading books, news) From me important is local community its 70 %.Than national community 20 % and transnational community its 10 %.

This is very interesting activity.Small steps (line up + questions + step back/forwards).It's a great opportunity to know both yourself and others.This task you can do in class with children.I will definitely use this activity

In the picture you can see how changed the line.With the help of the question the line changed. And its great opportunity to see what is common to different in group.

The next activity is very interesting and funny.Everyone has their own image.Everyone should be told what is in picture creating a narrative.The most interesting is that at the end each person told story in your language.It was very interesting to hear each person's language.It is every person identity.

Globalization at the cultural level has brought about the fragmentation and multiplication of identities and this may require, paradoxically, a return to the familiar. (Cohen et al.)

• I think that globalization will bring people together.It hard to judge,because from me its something new.But i think it is important to see the prospects for the future.Using a wide range of human possibilities.

World citizenship is to be embraced, not feared. New forms of post-national understanding, responsibility, the state, justice, art, science and public understanding can emerge. This in turn can lead to more advanced forms of democracy, liberty and mutuality. (Beck)

• World citizenship is to be embraced, not feared.I agree with this expression.Because today we have a too much problems.And we can resolve it.People have to feel free.Do not be afraid of their own.Be honest and patient.
