Thinking about what it would mean to be global.
Related to country: United States

Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

I've been thinking about a lot of things related to how to build community for my students and how to make this community go beyond their own classroom, their own school, and even their own social network -- which for my students is http://youthvoices.net . This is what leads me to think about students posting their once-a-week essay on this site, Taking It Global, then using an RSS feed to bring that back into Youth Voices. I think both Youth Voices and Taking It Global will be richer if we do this.
