What is an Effective Global Collaborative Project?
An educational project that flattens or joins classrooms and people from geographically
dispersed places within a technology infrastructure built for a common curricular
purpose.
Interactions foster cultural understanding and global awareness in the process of
learning.
Local identity is maintained and celebrated.
Am I willing to redesign my curriculum to embed a global project into what my class does?
“Designing a global collaborative experience involves transcending the obvious real time linkup,
fostering higher order thinking and providing opportunities for cultural understanding
while usually making a product that impacts others in
a positive way. ”
