We provide teachers with the opportunity to make global connections through their participation in our online community spaces, and through our wiki, blog, and Teacher Contact Directories (shared privately on this wiki).
These communities are open to all teachers interested in global education / collaboration projects. Academic researchers and representatives of global education organisations are welcome to join our spaces; however, please email us first!
We strongly encourage teachers to formally register for Global Classroom 2012-13, AND join this wiki. This enables us to keep accurate records, and assist teachers seeking to connect with international teachers working in similar subject / learning areas / year levels.
