I am writing curriculum for our new text (Deutsch Aktuell) and use the SmartBoard daily in the classroom. I would be interested in finding anyone interested in directly sharing resources, writing chapter lessons or brainstorming SmartBoard activities. I primarily teach German 2 and 3, and use the DA1 and DA2 texts.
The project is about creating lessons together. I will provide an opensource learning platform where teachers and students can work with.
The project is in a testfase with schools from Spain, Italy, France, Turkey and Belgium.
Next topic will be: LLT about Paris, France
The Multilingual video project allows teachers to bring their own children to narrate the same video in their own language and for it to be placed on the Internet. The project will interweave, languages and technology to motivate and engage children. Children will be able to view the different language versions of the video and understand the words in different languages.

Since it is "that time of year," I think a great way to introduce kids to the concept of collaboration is to share first day of school experiences around the country and around the globe. My first thought was to do Animoto videos, but I am sure there are many other great ways to connect. Ultimately, it would be great to create a web site or wiki with all of our experiences in one place. I would foresee us talking about traditions, fears, hopes, etc. I think staying with the ages of around 7-11 would be best. This could be a really excellent project!
Students on Twitter is a project designed to connect preK-2 classrooms around the world through Twitter. Microblogging is a great way for young classrooms to become e-pals with other classrooms.

Please join us as we embark on this new venture!
I would like to connect with a classroom outside of the US to discuss immigration.
- How the US is viewed is that country
- Reasons for immigrating to the US
- Retaining culture vs. acculturation
I am trying to formulate a project for my 11th & 12th grade Dynamic Earth Science students. I would like to have the students journaling about the night sky, what they can see with the naked eye, with binoculars, with a telescope (if they have one). Then compare that to the what others are seeing at different locations around the world.
I would like to see the students using a blog or wiki (undecided which) with either digital images or scanned diagrams.
Our website provider is supposed to be adding blogs and wikis to our website tools, so hopefully we can collaborate through that website.
This project is in it's development phase, so if you are interested at all please put your thoughts in and we can make something great.
I am looking to create a wiki in which people from around the world can enter data about their weather and then students can look at the data and beging to draw conclusions about what impacts weather and how weather moves around the world.
My students will be using TI probeware to collect data as part of a year-long project that concludes in the spring during out most active weather times.
I am VERY new to this and would like to start getting some feedback about the potential for this project. Any comments, suggestions and collaborators are greatly appreciated.
I am looking for this project to begin at the start of the 2009-2010 school year.
My 10th grade (15-16 years old) physics students do a weekly or bi-weekly research project to answer simple questions about how physics relates to the real world. For the 09-10 school year, I'm interested in finding middle years physical science students with questions about what they're learning. The middle years students would send their questions to my students, who would do the research and explain the results. This could be done by email between teachers or through a wiki or through podcasting. I'm open to possibilities.
Educomics http://www.educomics.org/ is an European Union Comenius education project under the Life Long Learning Programme. It will show educators how online and offline digital comics can be used in the classroom to enhance learning, engage and motivate students, and use technology in a practical and effective way.
The project will create training material for teachers and organise workshops for teachers. Attending teachers will learn how to apply strategies and lesson plans in their schools using digital comics.
You can get involved with Educomics during the course of the project, by downloading the Comiclab application that will allow you to make web comic books. The Comiclab application can be downloaded from http://www.itisart.com.gr/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=66&Itemid=68&lang=en . You can use it in your school. We would be very interested in hearing about the results and how you used web comic books, please let us know at the address below.
If you would like further information please write to us.

The goal of this project is to explore ancient civilizations by concentrating on their mythologies.
It is more of a set of tools and experts that the teacher can use to meet specific goals rather than a completely structured project.
Tools
A list of about 200 links to mythologies of of 20 different cultures.
A website dealing with Architecture and Ancient Civilization http://ahaafoundation.org/
A web based course and information source on ancient civilizations. http://www.educationalsynthesis.org/socstud/Civilization/ In addition we have an Introduction to Civilization course made up of flash with audio mini courses that introduce the basic components of a civilization.
Resource People
Bob Zenhausern, Ph.D.
Internet pioneer, published researcher, and website developer.
Anne Pemberton, BS
Internet pioneer, k-12 teacher, curriculum developer.
Katherine Bolman, Ed.D. MFA Creator of the Architecture and Ancient Civilization website and expert in ancient civilizations.
These people will be available via email, skype or chat on a regular or as needed basis.
These tools allow for flexible projects, such as creating a wiki on mythology, treating mythology as literature, an individual or group assignment on ancient history. And many others.
I would like to do a project between a group of 14-15 year olds from Barcelona, Spain and Somewhere in Canada. These students learn English as a foreign language. My project would consist of a wiki where both classes would enter information about their typical day (What time they wake up, what they eat for breakfast, how they go to school, length of classes and lunch, etc...) We could also share information about their favourite music groups, the clothes they wear, the activities they do on the weekend, etc... If you think this could be an interesting idea for you and your students,contact me at: teacherbarcelona@gmail.com
Hi I am presently studying for an MA at Newcastle University in the UK. I have a survey relating to the use of IWB's in the Secondary classroom of overseas colleagues. I would really appreciate it if any members outside the UK could take the time out and fill it in.

I am looking for this project to begin at the start of the 2009-2010 school year.
My 10th grade (15-16 years old) physics students do a weekly or bi-weekly research project to answer simple questions about how physics relates to the real world. For the 09-10 school year, I'm interested in finding middle years physical science students with questions about what they're learning. The middle years students would send their questions to my students, who would do the research and explain the results. This could be done by email between teachers or through a wiki or through podcasting. I'm open to possibilities.
Educomics http://www.educomics.org/ is an European Union Comenius education project under the Life Long Learning Programme. It will show educators how online and offline digital comics can be used in the classroom to enhance learning, engage and motivate students, and use technology in a practical and effective way.
The project will create training material for teachers and organise workshops for teachers. Attending teachers will learn how to apply strategies and lesson plans in their schools using digital comics.
You can get involved with Educomics during the course of the project, by downloading the Comiclab application that will allow you to make web comic books. The Comiclab application can be downloaded from http://www.itisart.com.gr/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=66&Itemid=68&lang=en . You can use it in your school. We would be very interested in hearing about the results and how you used web comic books, please let us know at the address below.
If you would like further information please write to us.

The goal of this project is to explore ancient civilizations by concentrating on their mythologies.
It is more of a set of tools and experts that the teacher can use to meet specific goals rather than a completely structured project.
Tools
A list of about 200 links to mythologies of of 20 different cultures.
A website dealing with Architecture and Ancient Civilization http://ahaafoundation.org/
A web based course and information source on ancient civilizations. http://www.educationalsynthesis.org/socstud/Civilization/ In addition we have an Introduction to Civilization course made up of flash with audio mini courses that introduce the basic components of a civilization.
Resource People
Bob Zenhausern, Ph.D.
Internet pioneer, published researcher, and website developer.
Anne Pemberton, BS
Internet pioneer, k-12 teacher, curriculum developer.
Katherine Bolman, Ed.D. MFA Creator of the Architecture and Ancient Civilization website and expert in ancient civilizations.
These people will be available via email, skype or chat on a regular or as needed basis.
These tools allow for flexible projects, such as creating a wiki on mythology, treating mythology as literature, an individual or group assignment on ancient history. And many others.
I would like to do a project between a group of 14-15 year olds from Barcelona, Spain and Somewhere in Canada. These students learn English as a foreign language. My project would consist of a wiki where both classes would enter information about their typical day (What time they wake up, what they eat for breakfast, how they go to school, length of classes and lunch, etc...) We could also share information about their favourite music groups, the clothes they wear, the activities they do on the weekend, etc... If you think this could be an interesting idea for you and your students,contact me at: teacherbarcelona@gmail.com
Hi I am presently studying for an MA at Newcastle University in the UK. I have a survey relating to the use of IWB's in the Secondary classroom of overseas colleagues. I would really appreciate it if any members outside the UK could take the time out and fill it in.

I am writing curriculum for our new text (Deutsch Aktuell) and use the SmartBoard daily in the classroom. I would be interested in finding anyone interested in directly sharing resources, writing chapter lessons or brainstorming SmartBoard activities. I primarily teach German 2 and 3, and use the DA1 and DA2 texts.
The project is about creating lessons together. I will provide an opensource learning platform where teachers and students can work with.
The project is in a testfase with schools from Spain, Italy, France, Turkey and Belgium.
Next topic will be: LLT about Paris, France
The Multilingual video project allows teachers to bring their own children to narrate the same video in their own language and for it to be placed on the Internet. The project will interweave, languages and technology to motivate and engage children. Children will be able to view the different language versions of the video and understand the words in different languages.
More information can be seen on the Kindersite at: http://www.kindersite.org/Videos.htm
You can see the video on the Kindersite or directly on YouTube at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RkqLfW8Akw

Since it is "that time of year," I think a great way to introduce kids to the concept of collaboration is to share first day of school experiences around the country and around the globe. My first thought was to do Animoto videos, but I am sure there are many other great ways to connect. Ultimately, it would be great to create a web site or wiki with all of our experiences in one place. I would foresee us talking about traditions, fears, hopes, etc. I think staying with the ages of around 7-11 would be best. This could be a really excellent project!
Students on Twitter is a project designed to connect preK-2 classrooms around the world through Twitter. Microblogging is a great way for young classrooms to become e-pals with other classrooms.

Please join us as we embark on this new venture!
I would like to connect with a classroom outside of the US to discuss immigration.
- How the US is viewed is that country
- Reasons for immigrating to the US
- Retaining culture vs. acculturation
I am trying to formulate a project for my 11th & 12th grade Dynamic Earth Science students. I would like to have the students journaling about the night sky, what they can see with the naked eye, with binoculars, with a telescope (if they have one). Then compare that to the what others are seeing at different locations around the world.
I would like to see the students using a blog or wiki (undecided which) with either digital images or scanned diagrams.
Our website provider is supposed to be adding blogs and wikis to our website tools, so hopefully we can collaborate through that website.
This project is in it's development phase, so if you are interested at all please put your thoughts in and we can make something great.
I am looking to create a wiki in which people from around the world can enter data about their weather and then students can look at the data and beging to draw conclusions about what impacts weather and how weather moves around the world.

We could also share information about their favourite music groups, the clothes they wear, the activities they do on the weekend, etc... If you think this could be an interesting idea for you and your students,contact me at: teacherbarcelona@gmail.com
Hi I am presently studying for an MA at Newcastle University in the UK. I have a survey relating to the use of IWB's in the Secondary classroom of overseas colleagues. I would really appreciate it if any members outside the UK could take the time out and fill it in.

I am writing curriculum for our new text (Deutsch Aktuell) and use the SmartBoard daily in the classroom. I would be interested in finding anyone interested in directly sharing resources, writing chapter lessons or brainstorming SmartBoard activities. I primarily teach German 2 and 3, and use the DA1 and DA2 texts.
The project is about creating lessons together. I will provide an opensource learning platform where teachers and students can work with.
The project is in a testfase with schools from Spain, Italy, France, Turkey and Belgium.
Next topic will be: LLT about Paris, France
The Multilingual video project allows teachers to bring their own children to narrate the same video in their own language and for it to be placed on the Internet. The project will interweave, languages and technology to motivate and engage children. Children will be able to view the different language versions of the video and understand the words in different languages.
More information can be seen on the Kindersite at: http://www.kindersite.org/Videos.htm

Since it is "that time of year," I think a great way to introduce kids to the concept of collaboration is to share first day of school experiences around the country and around the globe. My first thought was to do Animoto videos, but I am sure there are many other great ways to connect. Ultimately, it would be great to create a web site or wiki with all of our experiences in one place. I would foresee us talking about traditions, fears, hopes, etc. I think staying with the ages of around 7-11 would be best. This could be a really excellent project!
Students on Twitter is a project designed to connect preK-2 classrooms around the world through Twitter. Microblogging is a great way for young classrooms to become e-pals with other classrooms.

I would like to connect with a classroom outside of the US to discuss immigration.

- Reasons for immigrating to the US
- Retaining culture vs. acculturation
I am trying to formulate a project for my 11th & 12th grade Dynamic Earth Science students. I would like to have the students journaling about the night sky, what they can see with the naked eye, with binoculars, with a telescope (if they have one). Then compare that to the what others are seeing at different locations around the world.
I would like to see the students using a blog or wiki (undecided which) with either digital images or scanned diagrams.
Our website provider is supposed to be adding blogs and wikis to our website tools, so hopefully we can collaborate through that website.
This project is in it's development phase, so if you are interested at all please put your thoughts in and we can make something great.
I am looking to create a wiki in which people from around the world can enter data about their weather and then students can look at the data and beging to draw conclusions about what impacts weather and how weather moves around the world.
My students will be using TI probeware to collect data as part of a year-long project that concludes in the spring during out most active weather times.
I am VERY new to this and would like to start getting some feedback about the potential for this project. Any comments, suggestions and collaborators are greatly appreciated.
I am looking for this project to begin at the start of the 2009-2010 school year.
My 10th grade (15-16 years old) physics students do a weekly or bi-weekly research project to answer simple questions about how physics relates to the real world. For the 09-10 school year, I'm interested in finding middle years physical science students with questions about what they're learning. The middle years students would send their questions to my students, who would do the research and explain the results. This could be done by email between teachers or through a wiki or through podcasting. I'm open to possibilities.

The goal of this project is to explore ancient civilizations by concentrating on their mythologies.
It is more of a set of tools and experts that the teacher can use to meet specific goals rather than a completely structured project.
Tools
A list of about 200 links to mythologies of of 20 different cultures.
A website dealing with Architecture and Ancient Civilization http://ahaafoundation.org/
A web based course and information source on ancient civilizations. http://www.educationalsynthesis.org/socstud/Civilization/ In addition we have an Introduction to Civilization course made up of flash with audio mini courses that introduce the basic components of a civilization.
Resource People
Bob Zenhausern, Ph.D.
Internet pioneer, published researcher, and website developer.
Anne Pemberton, BS
Internet pioneer, k-12 teacher, curriculum developer.
Katherine Bolman, Ed.D. MFA Creator of the Architecture and Ancient Civilization website and expert in ancient civilizations.
These people will be available via email, skype or chat on a regular or as needed basis.
These tools allow for flexible projects, such as creating a wiki on mythology, treating mythology as literature, an individual or group assignment on ancient history. And many others.
I would like to do a project between a group of 14-15 year olds from Barcelona, Spain and Somewhere in Canada. These students learn English as a foreign language. My project would consist of a wiki where both classes would enter information about their typical day (What time they wake up, what they eat for breakfast, how they go to school, length of classes and lunch, etc...) We could also share information about their favourite music groups, the clothes they wear, the activities they do on the weekend, etc... If you think this could be an interesting idea for you and your students,contact me at: teacherbarcelona@gmail.com
Hi I am presently studying for an MA at Newcastle University in the UK. I have a survey relating to the use of IWB's in the Secondary classroom of overseas colleagues. I would really appreciate it if any members outside the UK could take the time out and fill it in.

I am writing curriculum for our new text (Deutsch Aktuell) and use the SmartBoard daily in the classroom. I would be interested in finding anyone interested in directly sharing resources, writing chapter lessons or brainstorming SmartBoard activities. I primarily teach German 2 and 3, and use the DA1 and DA2 texts.
The project is about creating lessons together. I will provide an opensource learning platform where teachers and students can work with.
The project is in a testfase with schools from Spain, Italy, France, Turkey and Belgium.
Next topic will be: LLT about Paris, France
The Multilingual video project allows teachers to bring their own children to narrate the same video in their own language and for it to be placed on the Internet. The project will interweave, languages and technology to motivate and engage children. Children will be able to view the different language versions of the video and understand the words in different languages.

Students on Twitter is a project designed to connect preK-2 classrooms around the world through Twitter. Microblogging is a great way for young classrooms to become e-pals with other classrooms.

Please join us as we embark on this new venture!
I am trying to formulate a project for my 11th & 12th grade Dynamic Earth Science students. I would like to have the students journaling about the night sky, what they can see with the naked eye, with binoculars, with a telescope (if they have one). Then compare that to the what others are seeing at different locations around the world.
I would like to see the students using a blog or wiki (undecided which) with either digital images or scanned diagrams.
Our website provider is supposed to be adding blogs and wikis to our website tools, so hopefully we can collaborate through that website.
This project is in it's development phase, so if you are interested at all please put your thoughts in and we can make something great.
I am looking to create a wiki in which people from around the world can enter data about their weather and then students can look at the data and beging to draw conclusions about what impacts weather and how weather moves around the world.
My students will be using TI probeware to collect data as part of a year-long project that concludes in the spring during out most active weather times.
I am VERY new to this and would like to start getting some feedback about the potential for this project. Any comments, suggestions and collaborators are greatly appreciated.
I am looking for this project to begin at the start of the 2009-2010 school year.
My 10th grade (15-16 years old) physics students do a weekly or bi-weekly research project to answer simple questions about how physics relates to the real world. For the 09-10 school year, I'm interested in finding middle years physical science students with questions about what they're learning. The middle years students would send their questions to my students, who would do the research and explain the results. This could be done by email between teachers or through a wiki or through podcasting. I'm open to possibilities.
Educomics http://www.educomics.org/ is an European Union Comenius education project under the Life Long Learning Programme.

The goal of this project is to explore ancient civilizations by concentrating on their mythologies.
It is more of a set of tools and experts that the teacher can use to meet specific goals rather than a completely structured project.
Tools
A list of about 200 links to mythologies of of 20 different cultures.
A website dealing with Architecture and Ancient Civilization http://ahaafoundation.org/
A web based course and information source on ancient civilizations. http://www.educationalsynthesis.org/socstud/Civilization/ In addition we have an Introduction to Civilization course made up of flash with audio mini courses that introduce the basic components of a civilization.
Resource People
Bob Zenhausern, Ph.D.
Internet pioneer, published researcher, and website developer.
Anne Pemberton, BS
Internet pioneer, k-12 teacher, curriculum developer.
Katherine Bolman, Ed.D. MFA Creator of the Architecture and Ancient Civilization website and expert in ancient civilizations.
These people will be available via email, skype or chat on a regular or as needed basis.
These tools allow for flexible projects, such as creating a wiki on mythology, treating mythology as literature, an individual or group assignment on ancient history. And many others.
I would like to do a project between a group of 14-15 year olds from Barcelona, Spain and Somewhere in Canada. These students learn English as a foreign language. My project would consist of a wiki where both classes would enter information about their typical day (What time they wake up, what they eat for breakfast, how they go to school, length of classes and lunch, etc...) We could also share information about their favourite music groups, the clothes they wear, the activities they do on the weekend, etc... If you think this could be an interesting idea for you and your students,contact me at: teacherbarcelona@gmail.com
Hi I am presently studying for an MA at Newcastle University in the UK. I have a survey relating to the use of IWB's in the Secondary classroom of overseas colleagues. I would really appreciate it if any members outside the UK could take the time out and fill it in.
The link is
http://is.gd/3OIfG
The survey is anonymous but if you would like to contribute further, there is a question which asks for your email so that I can contact you later in the year.
This link will be closed on the 23rd October 2009
Many thanks
Mike
I am writing curriculum for our new text (Deutsch Aktuell) and use the SmartBoard daily in the classroom. I would be interested in finding anyone interested in directly sharing resources, writing chapter lessons or brainstorming SmartBoard activities. I primarily teach German 2 and 3, and use the DA1 and DA2 texts.
The project is about creating lessons together. I will provide an opensource learning platform where teachers and students can work with.
The project is in a testfase with schools from Spain, Italy, France, Turkey and Belgium.
Next topic will be: LLT about Paris, France
The Multilingual video project allows teachers to bring their own children to narrate the same video in their own language and for it to be placed on the Internet. The project will interweave, languages and technology to motivate and engage children. Children will be able to view the different language versions of the video and understand the words in different languages.

Students on Twitter is a project designed to connect preK-2 classrooms around the world through Twitter. Microblogging is a great way for young classrooms to become e-pals with other classrooms.

I am trying to formulate a project for my 11th & 12th grade Dynamic Earth Science students. I would like to have the students journaling about the night sky, what they can see with the naked eye, with binoculars, with a telescope (if they have one). Then compare that to the what others are seeing at different locations around the world.
I would like to see the students using a blog or wiki (undecided which) with either digital images or scanned diagrams.
Our website provider is supposed to be adding blogs and wikis to our website tools, so hopefully we can collaborate through that website.
This project is in it's development phase, so if you are interested at all please put your thoughts in and we can make something great.
I am looking to create a wiki in which people from around the world can enter data about their weather and then students can look at the data and beging to draw conclusions about what impacts weather and how weather moves around the world.
My students will be using TI probeware to collect data as part of a year-long project that concludes in the spring during out most active weather times.
I am VERY new to this and would like to start getting some feedback about the potential for this project. Any comments, suggestions and collaborators are greatly appreciated.
I am looking for this project to begin at the start of the 2009-2010 school year.
My 10th grade (15-16 years old) physics students do a weekly or bi-weekly research project to answer simple questions about how physics relates to the real world. For the 09-10 school year, I'm interested in finding middle years physical science students with questions about what they're learning. The middle years students would send their questions to my students, who would do the research and explain the results. This could be done by email between teachers or through a wiki or through podcasting. I'm open to possibilities.

I would like to do a project between a group of 14-15 year olds from Barcelona, Spain and Somewhere in Canada. These students learn English as a foreign language. My project would consist of a wiki where both classes would enter information about their typical day (What time they wake up, what they eat for breakfast, how they go to school, length of classes and lunch, etc...) We could also share information about their favourite music groups, the clothes they wear, the activities they do on the weekend, etc... If you think this could be an interesting idea for you and your students,contact me at: teacherbarcelona@gmail.com
I am writing curriculum for our new text (Deutsch Aktuell) and use the SmartBoard daily in the classroom. I would be interested in finding anyone interested in directly sharing resources, writing chapter lessons or brainstorming SmartBoard activities. I primarily teach German 2 and 3, and use the DA1 and DA2 texts.
The project is about creating lessons together. I will provide an opensource learning platform where teachers and students can work with.
The project is in a testfase with schools from Spain, Italy, France, Turkey and Belgium.
Next topic will be: LLT about Paris, France
The Multilingual video project allows teachers to bring their own children to narrate the same video in their own language and for it to be placed on the Internet. The project will interweave, languages and technology to motivate and engage children. Children will be able to view the different language versions of the video and understand the words in different languages.

I am trying to formulate a project for my 11th & 12th grade Dynamic Earth Science students. I would like to have the students journaling about the night sky, what they can see with the naked eye, with binoculars, with a telescope (if they have one). Then compare that to the what others are seeing at different locations around the world.
I would like to see the students using a blog or wiki (undecided which) with either digital images or scanned diagrams.
Our website provider is supposed to be adding blogs and wikis to our website tools, so hopefully we can collaborate through that website.
This project is in it's development phase, so if you are interested at all please put your thoughts in and we can make something great.
I am looking to create a wiki in which people from around the world can enter data about their weather and then students can look at the data and beging to draw conclusions about what impacts weather and how weather moves around the world.
My students will be using TI probeware to collect data as part of a year-long project that concludes in the spring during out most active weather times.
I am VERY new to this and would like to start getting some feedback about the potential for this project. Any comments, suggestions and collaborators are greatly appreciated.
I am looking for this project to begin at the start of the 2009-2010 school year.
My 10th grade (15-16 years old) physics students do a weekly or bi-weekly research project to answer simple questions about how physics relates to the real world. For the 09-10 school year, I'm interested in finding middle years physical science students with questions about what they're learning. The middle years students would send their questions to my students, who would do the research and explain the results. This could be done by email between teachers or through a wiki or through podcasting. I'm open to possibilities.

I would like to have the students journaling about the night sky, what they can see with the naked eye, with binoculars, with a telescope (if they have one). Then compare that to the what others are seeing at different locations around the world.
I would like to see the students using a blog or wiki (undecided which) with either digital images or scanned diagrams.
Our website provider is supposed to be adding blogs and wikis to our website tools, so hopefully we can collaborate through that website.
This project is in it's development phase, so if you are interested at all please put your thoughts in and we can make something great.
I am looking to create a wiki in which people from around the world can enter data about their weather and then students can look at the data and beging to draw conclusions about what impacts weather and how weather moves around the world.
My students will be using TI probeware to collect data as part of a year-long project that concludes in the spring during out most active weather times.
I am VERY new to this and would like to start getting some feedback about the potential for this project. Any comments, suggestions and collaborators are greatly appreciated.
I am looking for this project to begin at the start of the 2009-2010 school year.
My 10th grade (15-16 years old) physics students do a weekly or bi-weekly research project to answer simple questions about how physics relates to the real world. For the 09-10 school year, I'm interested in finding middle years physical science students with questions about what they're learning. The middle years students would send their questions to my students, who would do the research and explain the results. This could be done by email between teachers or through a wiki or through podcasting. I'm open to possibilities.
Educomics http://www.educomics.org/ is an European Union Comenius education project under the Life Long Learning Programme. It will show educators how online and offline digital comics can be used in the classroom to enhance learning, engage and motivate students, and use technology in a practical and effective way.
The project will create training material for teachers and organise workshops for teachers. Attending teachers will learn how to apply strategies and lesson plans in their schools using digital comics.
You can get involved with Educomics during the course of the project, by downloading the Comiclab application that will allow you to make web comic books. The Comiclab application can be downloaded from http://www.itisart.com.gr/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=66&Itemid=68&lang=en . You can use it in your school. We would be very interested in hearing about the results and how you used web comic books, please let us know at the address below.
If you would like further information please write to us.

The goal of this project is to explore ancient civilizations by concentrating on their mythologies.
It is more of a set of tools and experts that the teacher can use to meet specific goals rather than a completely structured project.
Tools
A list of about 200 links to mythologies of of 20 different cultures.
A website dealing with Architecture and Ancient Civilization http://ahaafoundation.org/
A web based course and information source on ancient civilizations. http://www.educationalsynthesis.org/socstud/Civilization/ In addition we have an Introduction to Civilization course made up of flash with audio mini courses that introduce the basic components of a civilization.
Resource People
Bob Zenhausern, Ph.D.
Internet pioneer, published researcher, and website developer.
Anne Pemberton, BS
Internet pioneer, k-12 teacher, curriculum developer.
Katherine Bolman, Ed.D. MFA Creator of the Architecture and Ancient Civilization website and expert in ancient civilizations.
These people will be available via email, skype or chat on a regular or as needed basis.
These tools allow for flexible projects, such as creating a wiki on mythology, treating mythology as literature, an individual or group assignment on ancient history. And many others.
I would like to do a project between a group of 14-15 year olds from Barcelona, Spain and Somewhere in Canada. These students learn English as a foreign language. My project would consist of a wiki where both classes would enter information about their typical day (What time they wake up, what they eat for breakfast, how they go to school, length of classes and lunch, etc...) We could also share information about their favourite music groups, the clothes they wear, the activities they do on the weekend, etc... If you think this could be an interesting idea for you and your students,contact me at: teacherbarcelona@gmail.com
I am writing curriculum for our new text (Deutsch Aktuell) and use the SmartBoard daily in the classroom. I would be interested in finding anyone interested in directly sharing resources, writing chapter lessons or brainstorming SmartBoard activities. I primarily teach German 2 and 3, and use the DA1 and DA2 texts.
The project is about creating lessons together. I will provide an opensource learning platform where teachers and students can work with.
The project is in a testfase with schools from Spain, Italy, France, Turkey and Belgium.
Next topic will be: LLT about Paris, France
The Multilingual video project allows teachers to bring their own children to narrate the same video in their own language and for it to be placed on the Internet. The project will interweave, languages and technology to motivate and engage children. Children will be able to view the different language versions of the video and understand the words in different languages.
More information can be seen on the Kindersite at: http://www.kindersite.org/Videos.htm
You can see the video on the Kindersite or directly on YouTube at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RkqLfW8Akw
