Journey North (jnorth@learner.org)
Sun, 2 Feb 1997 14:13:17 -0500
Just think, hundreds of classrooms across North
America
are
participating in Journey North at the same time you are--watching
for
migratory animals, noting signs of spring and charting changes
in
temperature and day length.
The Teacher to Teacher Feature is a service that connects Journey
North
classrooms This is a place for you to meet, share activities,
invent
interactive projects and exchange ideas that will help make this
project a
successful telecommunications experience for your students.
How to Participate
Write a message you'd like to share with other
teachers. It will be added to the Teacher to Teacher arcives where others
will find it.
Ways to Use This Service:
There are countless ways you can implement inquiry-based learning over
Internet using Journey North's spring theme:
- Share and compare backyard data.
- Meet other teachers and explore ways to integrate Journey North into
your curriculum.
- Design your own study! Begin with a question that students can
investigate locally. Then use the Teacher-Teacher Feature to coordinate a
small network of schools from different geographical regions to supply
comparative data.
Please suggest resources appropriate for your grade level which other
participants will find useful!
