VisitProject



> Dear Colleague,

>

> The International Classroom Virtual Visit (Virtual School) project is

> beginning its ninth year, linking classrooms across the world to

> enable students to meet each other virtually, share

> information about their cultures, their classrooms, and their

> communities, and to build cultural understanding. Classes can include

> English as a Second or Other Language (ESOL/ESL), Adult Basic

> Education (ABE, GED),  elementary or secondary education, or family

> literacy.  Students can be from age seven to adult.

>

> As in past years, we hope classes will engage in lively written

> discussion, and possibly choose a film, book or current event to

> discuss. We have a free wiki, so classes don't have to create their

> own web pages, and we will help teachers to use free Internet

> telephony so their classes can talk to each other if they can find a

> time that works to do that.

>

> If you would like to participate in this year's project,

>

> 1. Sign up on the I.C.V.V. e-list  by going to:

>

>        http://lists.literacytent.org/mailman/listinfo/icvv

>

>        Scroll down the page to choose an ID and password.  That's

> it, easy and free.

>

> 2. Once you receive confirmation that you are on the I.C.V.V. e-list,

> send an e-mail to:

>

> describe your class, when it will begin, and what age group or

> nationality you would prefer to partner with.
