Networking Schools Internationally

Last week’s meeting with Jackson School, via Skype and discoverE, in Massachusetts highlighted to me how easy it is (via the internet) to virtually meet with schools across international borders - which could be used to great effect for learning (and of course it’s free).

However, one of the issues might be finding an appropriate school that would like to meet with your school.
With a large number of registered roythezebra users in the US, UK, Australia and New Zealand plus other nations (a big hello to schools in Buenos Aires...), I was thinking I could quite easily put you in touch with like-minded teachers and schools in order to meet virtually - it could be to share or read stories that the children have written or simply to explain what it’s like living in a different part of the world... having that ‘real life’ contact can be so important for motivation and learning.

Naturally everyone involved would need to be vetted prior to meeting, but this is just an initial thought... if you’d like to get involved just let me know... tim@roythezebra.com
