What was the topic of the discussion and how was organised? |
The topic was “Peace as imperativ!”
I contacted school director who suggested having a discussion group at prof. Milićevićs class. She teaches german language and used to live in Germany, so she was envolved in discusion talking about reconcilliation and challanges which germans had to face. |
Explain the reaction of the participants on your speech. |
They were very curious about the topic. What I had expected actually happend in discussion group.. Students did not know the truth about many things regarding history and legal terms, but were eager to talk about it. |
Have you notice the impact of your lecture on the participants? Explain. |
Yes. I explained the misuse of history and the need to always be curious about everything. Also explained what “Genocide” means, since they had wrong deffiniton of it. They were glad to hear
the word about usual things, but from different point of view. |
What were the questions posed by the participants and how did you react? |
Mostly about genocide regading its meaning and what had happend in Srebrenica. I explained the genocide and why is it so hard to prove genocide in practice. Interesting question was regarding
gender formulation in the evaluation form. I had to explain why we needed “Other”. |
