Global Gossip: New Experiment for Students to Share Knowledge and Culture: Example: Sakura Trees

I am experimenting with an amazing teacher in Japan a new idea for students to collaborate, share, and exchange bits of information about themselves, their cultures, and day to day life. This week we have started to experiment with our project.

We have many ideas and trying to find out what works best.

As of right now we(teachers) are really in control with student input, but once we get things smoothed over and figured out the students will be in charge and take their education down the paths they want to explore.

I don't want to get into all the details of the project because it is still in progress, but I woke up this morning to see the following info posted in the project.

What a great way to start your day!

I love technology and the chance to work with great educators from around the world.
