Buddhism? Who Really Cares?
When preparing a lesson for a High School level Geography class, what are some ideas to incorporate technology to make teaching world religions more engaging to students? Also, what are strategies to help students relate to, and understand, people halfway around the world?

OK! Do a search on Skype, and you'll find that there are lots of teachers beginning to have their students talk with classes in other parts of the world in very creative ways. Chris Craft has been a pioneer in this (his Spanish students giving reports in Spanish to native speakers in a class in Peru!). Also, look up Victoria Davis and Julie Lindsay's Flat Classroom Project, where they used a wiki to coordinate student projects between their classes in Georgia (US) and Bangladesh. (They are also mentioned in the latest revision of Friedman's The World is Flat.)
