Looking to connect with other schools for a Collaborative Project

Hi, all! I have a number of keen teachers at my school interested in starting some collaborative projects in both English, Social Science and Languages classes at the 9-12 level.

Appleby College is the school and we're based in Oakville, Ontario (Canada). We are looking to connect with schools internationally. If you're interested, please feel free to contact me directly at mhourahine[at]appleby.on.ca or reply to this discussion.

Thanks!

Hi, Shailendra... Sounds good... Can you send me an email (mhourahine at appleby.on.ca) with your contact info and I will see if any of our science teachers are interested in something? What grade levels do you teach?

Mike,
Have you looked at ePals (www.epals.com)? Even if you don't use it for secure emailing between students (which I have had great success with), the teacher forums are a good way to connect with teachers and classrooms around the world.

I teach a grade 12 class called Global Technical Communication, and I am also looking for a collaborative partner. I'd love to partner with another teacher and do a dual project....
