European week : the results

Message publié initialement en avril 2011...

During the third term of 2011, the 15 students of the European course (second year, “classe de première”), have created a series of questions both to test the knowledge (= “savoir, connaissances”) of the Chap's students and to inform them about the European Union.
 
This survey was carried out by : POUGET Clément, SAMPER Nicolas, ROLLAND Chanel, HOURDIN Marjolaine, SINCLAIR James, ROCHEREAU Pierre, BOIRAL Jade, BALDET Emilie, DUVAL Margot-Lys, CHAUVEAU Marine, SALLES Marjorie, PEUCH Robin, MICHEL Alice, ITIER Emma, BANEGAS Dolorès.

Are the Chap's students really European : who do they know best, Nadal or Barroso ?
 
A first team worked on the history and geography of the European Union and collected 51 % of correct answers, which means that one student out of two doesn't know much about those topics.
The questions dealt with the most important treaties, landmarks (dates) linked to the European enlargements since the end of the Second World War, and the famous Schuman Declaration on May the 9th 1950.
As regards European culture and symbols, the results have been slightly better.
59 % right answers, which means three students out of five students know well about the culture of the 27 countries : their anthems, mottos, flags, currency and European days.
As far as food and tradition are concerned, 66 % of the students have succeeded, that is two out of three students can tell about traditional recipes, famous monuments, habits and dancing, well-known food and drinks, local heritage (“patrimoine local”).
About famous quotes and European goals, 47 % have given correct answers, which means that less than one student out of two master the details of European programs (such as Erasmus), or institutions (such as the European Council, the European Commission and the European Parliament).
To finish, the students have found 76 % of good answers linked to sports and music.
 
So, most of the Chap's students are EU music and sports – savy (= experts), about championships, rules and famous European players and bands.
