Student-oriented informal first meeting Guided Communication Find ways to involve ALL students First Impressions Leave time for troubleshooting • Duties? • Very clearly laid out • Not too demanding • Timeline • Very important • Jump right in • Germany/Iowa • No one was actually from Germany! • Smaller groups?

  14. MY EXPERIENCE AS AN EXPERT ADVISOR IN A GLOBAL CLASSROOM Very rewarding when sharing knowledge, guiding students, helping them out and seeing progress and final results. + Communication, cooperation among expert advisors must be improved. - + Nadya Fantastic way to get approached to this form of collaboration/learning as a pre-service teacher. This encourage me to implement learning in a global classroom in my future teaching career.

  15. The Future Of Global Collaboration • Many more classes and countries participating no matter the subject. • Opportunities for greater topic selection for students. • Enhanced communication and direction. • Students working together at once using tools such as LIVE. • Secondary student outcomes such as culture, geography and learning styles taught. • Projects linked to countries where students are affected by a specific topic in order to enhance learning and see others view points. Justin

  16. How Will We Keep Our Connections Alive? • Will I keep in touch with FCP expert advisors from other institutions? • Is there a need to keep in touch? • It’s certainly a question of ATTITUDE • What skills should students develop: global collaboration or global networking? • Are students encouraged to network in school? • Should they be expected to do the same online? • Students can network and socialize at their own discretion in real life • Provide opportunities to do so during online collaborative projects? • Ning for FCP Matthew

  17. Global Collaboration Dimensions(from Partners in Learning) • Collaboration—are students required to share responsibility and make substantive decisions with other people? • Knowledge Building—are students required to build knowledge? Is that knowledge interdisciplinary? • Use of ICT for Learning—do students use ICT to support knowledge building? Is ICT necessary to that knowledge building? This is NOW the MAINSTREAM! Summary
