And let's switch this conversation over to email. I can be reached at davidcarp@yahoo.com Looking forward to talking with you. We won't be able to video chat as our school's connection speed is to slow.

- Hi Tiffany,
I am settled in here at the Casablanca American School and can now work with you to have some of my students Skype with yours. They are 9th graders but should be able to connect with your 7th graders. We are 4 hours head of your there in NC. I would be interested in coming up with a series of questions for our students to ask each other. Maybe you and I can Skype in the next week or two.
Cheers-David

- Can we call you on Skype before completing the requirements listed or does this have to be done prior to contact. My students are out of school for the summer as of June 10th. We are beginning a project that is a review of everything we have studied this year. Part of the requirement is to compare their lives with kids their age in the countries we have studied. I think talking with your kids would be a great way to fulfill this aspect of the project. I am happy to complete the list of requirements you mentioned but if we can go ahead with the Skype contact next week that would be great for us.

Errol Keet said… - Tiffany, I would love to Collaborate with you.But this is the protocol for the site and for our schools participation:
The Webmaster needs the following:
Your schools emblem, overview of school (background)
I will qoute him for you: "I think if we ask the school that is interested to first send the first page of information, school emblem and colors before we create
access for them at least we then have some idea that they will follow through...Mike Bellah"
As you can see at the website at Present many schools asked for access, pages were made for them to publish Collaborative projects but they never did anything on it.
e-mail the required information to mdb@chagrinriver.net and cc me in errol@nederburgschool.org
I will send you The Learning Guide of Exponent, also mention to him that you willbe the your schools representative, lead contact. The whole idea of this site is for schools to publish their projects and other schools join them on the venture. Remember the Nederburg Virtual School site will give you ownership on it, you will assist in building the E-library on topic that you think may interest the learners and teachers...
Respond soon. Send pictures of you and your learners, the emblem, Countries badge (if US) not required. Brief info on what you think about your school.
You will be given access and you can start editing, upload pictures, info of your school, launch a project and be a Virtual teacher, Tiffany

- Certainly...saduece1 skype name. Certainly that is the main purpose of this website to allow our learners and teachers to collaborate on projects together and to share their school's and countries experiience with one another.
