Tom Barrett said… Hi Sarah
I thought I would share with you a global student project taking place right now as I thought you would be interested.
The #world11kids project is part of the UN's ITUWorld Conference taking place in Geneva, Switzerland in a few weeks time.
We are inviting 10,000 kids from around the world to design solutions to the toughest of world problems and put challenges to the world leaders who will gather at the conference.
We are looking for schools to get involved and thought you might be able to help.
You can find out more here http://world2011.us/
best wishes

Betty Tonsing said… - Hello Sarah: thanks for joining Global Visits. Have you been to the web site? It has all the power and capability as facebook but focused on educational and cultural exchange. Facebook is exciting, but all over the map! Global Visits offers an easy venue for classroom projects. Are you still teaching university classes? Have you linked your classroom with one overseas? I look forward to hearing from you.
