I realized this presentation when I attended the English Language GCSE course, in 2015. Of course, I done it in Powerpoint. For the course, I made the presentation both on paper and stick to design it on a fabric support. I printed each slide, then I laminated, perforated and tied it with string to form a booklet. But for the blog, I had to scan each sheet, because it can be uploaded only as images.
My "mates", to the course, were teenagers between 17 and 20 years (of British origin). Some of them seemed really smart, especially a boy of low stature, diabetic and who had a name that seemed to me a girl name, namely Ashley. He was one of the few teenagers behaving decently inside of the College and the only, except the tutor, who ate from the boeuf salad I brought.
I was surprised to ascertain that these teenagers formal education was so low, that a girl with a claim of grade "A", for the full GCSE course, asked me if Romania is in Italy. That was, because I said the name of Romania comes from Rome. So my finding, at the moment, was that these teenagers had never heard of a country named Romania and certainly, they did not know it was in Europe.
Anyway, I doubted that they knew, the UK was part of the EU and "what, that EU, eats with", even if they use the internet.
