Organization: Moscow Study Trips
Subject: Moscow study trips 2005
To: K12ADMIN@LISTSERV.SYR.EDU
I would like to measure interest for a Moscow Study Trip that would
depart around May 5, 2005 for 3-4 weeks. The purpose, as always, is
to examine the political, economic and social transition in Russia.
For educators who can be free at this time, Russian schools will be
in session and visits/contacts can normally be arranged.
This would not only be the 25th anniversary of the trips (1980-
2005), but we would be present for the 60th anniversary of the
victory in World War 2, a major event and probably the last special
commemoration because the remaining veterans are dying off.
As a new feature in 2004, our host assigned a dozen of its students
to be with us, in groups of 4-5, every day. This meant an immediate
opportunity for our group to meet Russians. This enhanced learning
about the city and country and many close friendships formed. I
expect this experiment to continue in 2005.
A program innovation was to use the history of the Zil automobile
factory as a way to understand how life and outlooks have changed
for several generations of Soviet/Russian families. (See the
schedule at: http://efenster.home.igc.org/sched04.htm)
To decide whether or not to offer a trip, I need to hear promptly
from potential participants or institutions interested in
collaboration. See http://efenster.home.igc.org/Coop.htm
Interest in another time, such as during June, should be indicated
as well.
