Peace Noble Prize in 2010

Liu Xiaobo was a Chinese literary critic, writer, poet, anti-communist, human rights activist and Nobel Peace Prize laureate who called for political reforms and was involved in campaigns to end Communist single-party rule. He was incarcerated as a political prisoner in Jinzhou, Liaoning. On 26 June 2017, he was granted medical parole after being diagnosed with terminal liver cancer and he died in hospital on 13 July 2017 when he was 61.
During his fourth prison term, Liu was awarded the 2010 Nobel Peace Prize for "his long and non-violent fight for fundamental human rights in China". Liu was the first Chinese citizen to be awarded a Nobel Prize of any kind while residing in China. He was the third person to have been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize while in prison or detention. Liu was one of the most important human right activist. He wanted to change

Born in the northern province of Jilin in 1955, Liu was part of the first generation of Chinese students to go to university after the cultural revolution. When pro-democracy protests broke out in Beijing in the spring of 1989, Liu was lecturing in New York but decided to return despite having previously shown little interest in politics. “He thought: ‘This is where I should be and this is where I can make a contribution. So I am going there’,”  He was jailed for almost two years for his leader role in what Beijing called “counter-revolutionary” riots. This gave him more reasons to fight for democracy and in 2008 it was jailed again. He had to be there until 2019, but he died with liver cancer.

I have chosen this person because of his pacific fight and his revolutionary ideas to achieve the equality and democratic communism in China. He was the leader of the resistance and inspired people all over the world. All the democratic governments supported him in his fight and he was an idol for Chinese citizens.

Etwinning project

This month we are working in a online etwinning project with students all over Europe. The project aims to encourage European schools to collaborate using (ICT) by providing the necessary infrastructure (online tools, services, support). Therefore, teachers registered in the eTwinning action are enabled to form partnerships and develop school projects in any subject. Teachers can develop our project and collaborate with teachers and students from other European countries. We are practising our english and knowing more about everyday life and culture of these countries. They are from Turkey, Spain, Lithuania and Slovakia. We are nearly 10 teachers and 120 students. So we have a different level of english. However, we can help each other and know about differnet hobbies we have. It's fascinating how easy has become the communication between people. This revolutionary idea gives the opportunity for us, students all over the world, to meet and speak about anything we want. In t...
