KIDPROJ-COORD is a forum where KIDPROJ projects can be suggested, developed and
organized. New project ideas can be brought to this list and we will support discussion
of the project and make sure it follows our KIDPROJ guidelines.
KIDPROJ-COORD is a vehicle where we can facilitate our adult leaders
as they work with students. Here adults and our KIDPROJ Team can discuss
strategies to implement a project in the classroom once it is offered on our
KIDPROJ list.
In KIDPROJ we encourage the students to dialogue and not simply post
information.
We try to deepen the participation among our students and help them move
from data to information to insight [Dr. Jamie McKenzie, fromnowon.org]
As we work with the students I hope we can watch them grow as they:
- gather data from their global classmates
- take that data, manipulate it, organize it, evaluate it into
"information"
- and from this information... be stirred to some kind of action or
strategies as they reach new insights
- and form new global friendships
