First vocational visit: Tim

Monday was my first vocational visit to an Italian High School. I really enjoyed meeting with a fellow teacher from Italy. We were able to talk and discuss similarities and differences in our fellow school systems.
Some things to note:
There are five years of high school in Italy
The federal government is becoming more involved in education
Technology is lacking in his particular school; old school methods still being used
There are two different schools: The other is called a classical school (Greek, Latin, other various subjects)

After our vocational visit we headed to the fort that protected Alessandria from threats. I was rather impressed for we had Italian High School students lead the tour. They did a great job!

Finally in the evening we had our first rotary presentation in front of a gracious audience.
