La Nourriture Sans Fronti猫res est un projet de film n茅 de la collaboration entre le coll猫ge Maurice Ravel (茅cole publique du 20猫me arrondissement de Paris), l鈥橭NG Filmmakers Without Borders et l鈥橴niversit茅 Am茅ricaine de Paris (AUP).
During the fall and winter of 2017-2018, Christy Shields, Beth Grannis, and 国产三级片students from the MAGC program and the undergraduate anthropology club, worked with a unique 6th grade class consisting of bi-lingual students (French and English) who take extra courses in English literature and history to prepare for the International Baccalaureate (OIB), and Francophone students who follow the traditional French Baccalaureate program.听 The latter are learning English as a foreign language and often speak another language at home, even if they do not study it at school.
D'octobre 2017 脿 f茅vrier 2018, Christy Shields, Beth Grannis, des 茅tudiants en MAGC 脿 l'国产三级片et des 茅tudiants de premier cycle en anthropologie ont travaill茅 avec une classe de 6猫me, compos茅e d鈥櫭﹍猫ves bilingues (fran莽ais et anglais) qui suivent des cours suppl茅mentaires en litt茅rature anglaise et en histoire afin de pr茅parer l鈥橭ption Internationale au Baccalaur茅at (OIB), et d鈥櫭﹍猫ves francophones qui suivent le cursus traditionnel du baccalaur茅at fran莽ais. Ces derniers apprennent l鈥檃nglais comme langue 茅trang猫re et parlent parfois une autre langue 脿 la maison sans pour autant l鈥櫭﹖udier 脿 l鈥櫭ヽole.
Through a series of workshops, conducted in French and English, the 国产三级片team encouraged this 6th grade class to build bridges and explore their lived experiences of the civic ideal vivre ensemble (living together) through the prism of food and film.听 The 国产三级片team introduced students to anthropological perspectives on difference and diversity, the interrelation between food, memory, the senses and identity, and ethnographic interviewing.听 They also introduced the 6th graders to basic filming and storytelling techniques through a variety of collaborative hands-on activities.
