     Projects for Smart Kids

     

    We're working with student teams to develop exciting new projects that fuel learning. Our student learning teams are creating programs and training materials to support the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) program.
    Connect your students with their peers globally to make a difference through 21st century learning.

     

     Digital Audio for Learning

     

    digital_audio                       Make some noise with your students by having them create their own audio / podcast instead of the usual paper or report. It's easy to do with the new Digital Audio tutorials created for and by teachers and students. Your students will never sound better! 

     

     Featured Lesson Plan

     

    In order to be prepared for tomorrow our students need an understanding of yesterday. Why not have your students make some news about the past to help them explore tomorrow? Consider using Durham Public School teacher Terence O'Neill's new lesson plan that integrates video production into the study of the Cold War.
