This purpose of this ning is to use ICTs to connect educators and students around the world in an international learning community. The project will use free Web 2.0 tools: nings, wikis, and blogs to communicate and collaborate. In Global Connections partiicipants will collaborate, develop and share ideas for using ICTs to demonstrate the NETS standards. Teachers and their students can use ICTs as outlined in ISTE's NETS for Students. Try Web 2.0 tools for digital video and audio, concept mapping, and any uses available for your ides of ICTs for global connections.

We can use a Celebration of Teachers for focusing our global exchange. One of my students in NYC sent a link about World Teacher's Day for honoring teachers around the world. We can use this ning space to share our appreciation for our teachers as well as for our students. Please join the ning and find another teacher here to join with you in the Celebration. It's fun to meet new people and use ICT's to share with each other.
