Since the design of alternating training courses, the class was involved in video creation process in four stages:
preparation
realization interviews
implementation of debriefing
final assembly
The work has been agreed with the Manager and the managers for school work alternation of the school, in order to obtain information on the implementation of alternation in the school.
The initial phase was carried out in the classroom with teacher support; They were shared content and objectives of the School & Work project, in particular by explaining the nature of the product to be made and the target to which it was intended. the questions to be submitted to the people to interview, explaining the good guys the kind of response expected and the effects that such responses could make in terms of tips and insights to be addressed to students, a little younger than they have been analyzed in possible conditions for education uncomfortable.
After analyzing the traces of interviews is the output in Verona was organized on the occasion of the trade fair and the orientation of the work "Job & Orienta", the most important at national level, with many opportunities to meet you, as well as providing insights for interviews , they constituted a potential for information and comparison for kids who, attending the fifth grade, are in the process of exit from education.
For output has been identified, on a voluntary basis, a group of six students, with the facilities of the school, took turns in the role of interviewers and cameramen.

It has also been chosen to interview a person who was perhaps the most important Italian reality of volunteering, Emergency, to highlight that the scope of non-formal skills acquisition is not confined to the work but also invests the commitment in the community that contributes to the creation of skills that, in the case of the person you met was an employee of a bank, they are useful in their work.
The interviews have been completed in Grosseto with another group of the same class guys who made the last three interviews.
The interviews have been viewed by involving the whole group class and triggering a discussion on the most important issues raised by the vision. The stimulus was given to the boys was to think about what they could "take home" from the interview, trying to reflect with them on issues that had affected them most and who would, likewise, could make an impression even on their companions, once completed the videos and used for the purposes of the project. This debriefing was recorded and entered in the appendix to the video, such as underlining content of the video.
