iPoPP is a place for educators and youth worldwide to find global learning projects and partners.
iPoPP combines the best offerings of GlobalSchoolNet and eLanguages, to improve academic achievement, encourage workforce readiness, and give youth skills to become responsible global citizens.
Excellent resource by Margaret Powers. If you teach younger students and want to collaborate or hop into a global project this website provides many updated resources and connections.
As part of this course you will have a chance to examine the different global collaborative opportunities available to teachers, and explore the teacher skills, student skills and appropriate pedagogy needed to turn those connections into an authentic, collaborative learning experience. We will also review some of the tools that help classrooms connect effectively.
The course has been designed by Phil Macoun (@pmacoun) and Brad Ovenell-Carter (@braddo). Phil has participated in the Digiteen project for 4 years and is currently enrolled in the Flat Classroom Certified Teacher program. Brad spent last year as head of Think Global, a school where students explore our world, studying in three new international cities each academic year.
We are also very excited to have Julie Lindsay joining us for a webinar on Saturday January 7th at 4:00 pm PST (click here to find out the time where you live). You do not have to be registered in the course to attend the webinar. Julie will be talking about her new book called Flattening Classrooms, Engaging Minds: Move to Global Collaboration One Step at a Time.
The course is in Moodle and runs from January 6th to 11th. If you haven’t participated in a Moodle Meet before here’s your chance! Except for the webinar the course is asynchronous. This means that you can pop in and out of the course at times that suit you best.
Good blog post from a global collaborative teacher in Australia
Theresa Allen, a Flat Classroom Certified Teacher, presents on the many and varied global projects available to classrooms internationally.
If you are looking for a global project to embed into your curriculum in October, this one I recommend! Designed for Grade 1-3 students, uses Voicethread and is wiki-centric. I love it!
An excellent project set up by Flat Classroom Certified teachers 2011
A new global project created by Amy Jambour, Flat Classroom Certified teacher 2011
"As you begin to explore the possibilities for cross-cultural interaction, global classroom projects, and new learning opportunities, several organizations and facilitators of online spaces can assist in your efforts. Many will actually facilitate these learning opportunities, while others are simply areas for you to connect and collaborate with other educators and students."
"Educating for Global Competence: Preparing Our Youth to Engage the World. written by Veronica Boix Mansilla and Anthony Jackson is now available for free here. This is a great resource for educators who want to incorporate Global Competence into their classrooms and schools."
