What are you learning whilst your teachers aren't looking?

If you have a spare 10 minutes after finishing the Flat Classroom project. Or if teachers reading this have another class they can spare some time to do this......
Terry Freedman (our Keynote for 2008 Flat Classroom project) is put together a survey called "What are you learning whilst your teachers aren't looking?" and is inviting students to take it. This will help him gather data and inform policy makers, academics, technology companies and teachers about how young people use technology for l… Continue

Hi Julie!
My name is Mary Freeman and I teach 5th grade in a small town in western North Carolina, USA. Last year, we collaborated with 7th & 8th graders in Belize on an ePals.com project. It was an awesome experience and helped my students view the world from a flatter perspective. I am very excited about becoming a member, but I'm not sure how to go about joining a project. I would appreciate any advice you can offer. Look forward to hear from you!

Ms. Lindsay, I would like to thank you for this amazing and such life changing experience. I never would thought that i would be able to go to the Qatar. But that isn't all. I have been able to work with other students around the world which is pretty amazing. So overall, i would say this is a life changing experience and i would like to say thank you.

Hi Ms. Lindsay. I have enjoyed working on this project with other people around the world. It has been a great opportunity to learn from other cultures and to learn new websites that can be useful to us in the future. Thank you for this experience.

Hello Mrs. Lindsay,
My name is Erika (from springwoods high school) and I am grateful that I was able to participate in it. I am currently on the edge of my seat to find out whether or not I will be attending the Flatclassroom Conference, hopefully it will all work out.

Once again, thank you very much for giving Spring Woods High school the opportunity to participate in this wonderful project, if I had another chance to participate in the flatclassroom project I wouldn't pass it up, too bad I'm a senior now.


Erika B.

Thank you for getting together with Ms. Davis and creating this project :)
