Any teachers in the UK - I have a couple of interview questions...

My name is Stephanie Hartman and I teach 5th grade in Cecil County, Maryland. I am taking a graduate level course in which I must interview a couple of teachers from the UK about global awareness and education. If you could forward this message and have any teachers you know give some brief responses, that would be wonderful and extremely helpful.  All information will be kept confidential and for my course purposes only.

Questions:
1. In your classroom, do you utilize any global networks to collaborate with students/teachers from another country? If so, which networks (ePals, etc) do you use?
2. If you do not use global networks, do you teach about global awareness in your classroom?
3. Do you feel it is important to teach global awareness in the classroom (global citizenship, global technology, 21st century workforce skills)?
4. What type(s) of technology do you use to teach/learn with in the classroom?
5.Do you feel your school system provides the appropriate infrastructure for technology (i.e. Internet capabilities available in every school, computers)?

If you teach in the UK and are willing to answer any of these questions - it would be most appreciated!
