| ELECTRONIC POSTCARDS | This project was conducted by Mrs Gray and her class this year. It was called Electronic Postcards. Register to join the project and send; e-mail postcards to classes around the world. You may view the collection of "postcards" at Mrs Gray's Classroom |
| GLOBAL GROCERY LIST | One of the oldest,
on-going networked projects, Global Grocery List (GGL) began on Global
SchoolNet in 1987. GGL has collected grocery prices from classes
around the world, generating a growing table of data that can be used in
a variety of disciplines to help students draw conclusions about our world
and to practice their information processing skills.

| E-MAIL AROUND THE WORLD | The project was designed to gather the names and e-mail addresses of classrooms around the world who were interested in short-term e-mail projects. Each class registered for a specific age group for participation. You then received e-mail addresses for the specified age group and sent to e-mail messages to everyone on your list or at least
100 participating classrooms around the world.
The Buddy System project which hosted the Email Around the World project last year, is in the process of changing it's focus. This summer they have decided not to invest in the creation of the database that would manage this project. So the project originator has removed the Email Around the World project from the Buddy System webserver. She has created a tutorial on how to find and develop a collaborative project. I would encourage you to look at this tutorial to discover how you can find and join other collaborative projects: Tammy Payton |
| 100 DAY E-MAIL PROJECT | Many schools use this
project to introduce the school to the experience of world-wide e-mail. You can start this project for yourself by listing a request on a listserv
for classes to send your class or school e-mail for the 100th day of school. When received, have students keep track on a map of all of the locations
that the e-mail is from.
Have your students send an acknowledgment or thank you response to each class as a way of re-enforcing the use of e-mail. |
