3. Victoria Falls: The Smoke That Thunders

4. On November 17th of 1855 David Livingstone became the first European to see them. Afterwards he wrote: "No one can imagine the beauty of the view from anything witnessed in England. It had never been seen before by European eyes; but scenes so lovely must have been gazed upon by angels in their flight."

17. Locations

19. Do you happen to know any? How are they different from the natural wonders? Do you happen to know what kinds of structures these Ancient wonders were? Where were they? Can we still see them today? Can you name any of them?

38. Refleksija / Poročilo / Komentar o uporab(nost)i: Pričujoča predstavitev je bila uporabljena enkrat, februarja 2015 v prvem letniku gimnazije, v okviru učnega sklopa o naravnih, antičnih in modernih čudesih sveta, povezanega z Module 3 v učbeniku On Screen B2: Travel & Holidays (Victoria Falls). Dijaki so se izredno dobro odzvali na slikovne iztočnice in zelo sodelovali pri uri. Sama predstavitev je zastavljena tako, da dopušča učitelju izbiro, saj hiper-povezave na spletne strani o čudesih antičnega sveta dajejo možnost izbire: tam lahko preberejo opis čudes, legende in zgodbe o njihovem nastanku, pomenu in usodi, lahko pa si ogledajo samo video posnetke o njih. Učitelj lahko izbere glede na to, koliko časa ima na voljo in kako podrobno želi obravnavati to tematiko, sekakor pa naj bi predvidel za to vsaj dve uri. Ogledu te predstavitve sledi reševanje učnega lista o antičnih čudesih sveta, ki je tudi priložen.
