Siberia, Russia
The Evenk Children go to school at a camp that moves. It was created by a young French woman named Alexandra Lavrillier. It moves from camp to camp, the amount of time that they are at each camp depends on the learning level and number of kids there. The Evenk children learn about their roots, how to use a computer, Russian curriculum, English, and French. Their school consists of a tent and a computer powered by a generator.

United States
Neil Armstrong students go to school every weekday for months at a time. They use iPads to do assignments, tests, and homework. They have 6 different classes they go to each day two of which are electives. The classes contain about 35-40 kids. Students learn standard curriculum created by the government. To get to school they either ride a bus, ride in a car, or walk.

Reflection
My educational experience is similar to the students in Siberia, Russia because we both use technology to learn. But I learn on an iPad and they learn on a computer, they also learn more languages than I do. This project has changed my outlook on education by teaching me how difficult it can be in other countries and how easy it is to learn in America. As a 7th grader I want to achieve the ability to get straight A's, to achieve this I must work hard and pay good attention in class. I want to improve my concentration in class because I don't want to miss out on directions from my teachers and then get confused on what I'm supposed to do.
