Net Generation Education Project
My World Civilizations II class and I were recently selected to particpate in the Net Generation Education Project organized by Vicki Davis and Julie Lindsay.
My class will work with schools from around the world as we will examing Don Tapscott’s book, Grown Up Digital: How the Net Generation is Changing Your World and the 2009 Horizon Report in order to determine what the future of education will look like.
We will be using multiple platforms, including a Ning, a Wiki, a Google Group to communicate with the other schools and discuss the ideas behind our final product: a video on what education should look like. This video is to be part of Tapscott’s Net Generation Education Challenge competition in which the winning entry will receive $10,000 in scholarship money.
The project begins this weekend, my students and I are excited to particpate and I will make sure to update the blog and let you know how it is going.
