3. In "TRICIDER" tool, we will create a page for each group to disscuss their ideas to complete the story. The students will be given a deadline to decide on their ending. 

4. In "Storyjumper" The groups will complete their stories. There will be rules for the groups for task sharing to make all contibute to the task.

5.After completing the stories, they will share the stories.As teachers, we will make them exchange the stories. Groups will write a poem for the story they are given. They will add it at the end of the story.  

6. We will make them exchange the stories again and the groups will create a "Google Earth Narrated Tour" for the points Adam visited in the story to see the cultural heritage points.( we will publish a tutorial to teach them how to create a tour. It is so easy.)

6. Then, we will share the story links in Twinspace.
