Extractions: Abstract To prepare U.S. preservice teachers for online teaching and reaching diverse learners, and to provide English instruction to Taiwanese students, American and Taiwanese university students corresponded via email. U.S. preservice teachers explored theory and practice of online instruction, corresponded as tutors to teach English language and American culture, and reflected upon their experiences. Taiwanese students practiced English and exchanged cultural information. This research explores documentation of the online teaching and learning experience in order to identify benefits and limitations of online teaching and learning, online teaching strategies, and cultural aspects associated with cross-cultural collaboration.

Extractions: Seattle, Washington, USA Abstract UWired is a collaborative effort at the University of Washington to bring electronic communications and information technology into the service of teaching and learning. This paper addresses the role that librarians have played in transforming undergraduate courses, pedagogy, facilities design, and faculty development to bring information literacy into departmental curricula. As research and teaching increasingly rely on global networks for the creation, storage and dissemination of knowledge, the need to educate information-literate students has become more widely recognized. Students often lack the skills necessary to succeed in this rapidly changing environment, and faculty need training and support to make use of new technologies for effective teaching and learning. The current environment provides an opportunity for librarians to play a key role in the evolution of an integrated information literacy curriculum, in contrast to past efforts which were sporadic and rarely programmatically based.

Skip to step five and explore the first set of links to find already existing projects you can join for FREE. Obviously you want to start by identify the theme of the project and a reason for linking up. Try to come up with a Collaborative Project which uses the Internet for a compelling reason. Here are some hints to making your project successful: Keep it simple, and I mean SIMPLE! You can always expand your project next year if it is successful. The most successful projects are small in scope and seek to answer a very finite, answerable question (e.g. Will we find the same microscopic organisms in ponds around the world). Try to find something which will enrich an already existing part of your curriculum rather then inventing an entirely new activity. The more aligned with regular teaching objectives and national standards, the more success you will have in finding other teachers to participate.

Extractions: You've felt it; I've felt it. Change has become central to life in the 21st century. Sometimes the speed of this change is overwhelming, especially in a world where the Internet places so much information right at our fingertips. While the Internet makes so many wonderful resources available, the most common question I hear is "How do I find the time to keep up?" The pace of this change will be limited only by our ability to manage it. Our students will encounter even more rapid change when they graduate, especially in the information they will require to perform effectively in the workplace. Thus, the ability to read and write becomes even more important to our children's future than it was to ours. Rapid change will be increasingly a part of their lives, and we need to begin now to prepare them. This column will explore an instructional approach, Internet Project, which prepares children for their literacy future in a world where change is a defining characteristic of literacy and learning.

The model is based on the case method, a powerful learning model. By examining critical moments in a case, participants enter vividly into the events and can carry the lessons learned into their professional lives. The Seeing Math Telecommunications Project has added the force of audio, video, and interactive computer tools to the already powerful case study method. These case studies use both real-life video narratives and guided inquiry to craft a unique learning experience. By going into real teachers' classrooms and presenting the problems they face and the solutions that grow from imperfect situations, Seeing Math provides a rich source of insight that all teachers can use to develop their own practice. Each Seeing Math case study focuses on specific math content that is widely recognized as difficult to teach.

Extractions: email yvonne@globalschoolnet.org Significant global changes are rapidly occurring and political boundaries are becoming less distinct. Certain issues such as the environment, terrorism, and inflation affect all populations of all countries. Job market skills and employment requirements are changing. Communication skills are becoming essential to earning a living, yet American students are not coming to the workforce adequately prepared. The Internet offers one of the most exciting and effective ways to teach students how to both communicate and collaborate by connecting teams of students with other classrooms around the world. The creation of "telecommunities" can unite students and teach them to work cooperatively. Collaborative learning becomes even more significant when the students who are working together are from different nations with varied cultures, histories, and socio-political beliefs. Yet, little has been written about how to prepare students to work in teams over the Internet. Although, the best collaborative projects can be designed to have students measure, collect, evaluate, write, read, publish, simulate, hypothesize, compare, debate, examine, investigate, organize, share, and report, it's important to remember that not all students need to be doing the same thing at the same time. Ideally, the class is divided into several teams or "crews" comprised of four or five students each. The teacher assigns each crew member a job title and a responsibility according to the student's individual talent or strength.
