Are global projects a good idea for me and my students? In this webinar, participants will explore the design features of global projects. Global projects offer rich opportunities for student voice and choice, but how do teachers manage all the various “places” where students are working? How do we deliver our curriculum while working with teachers and students in other disciplines or even other jurisdictions? This webinar will demonstrate how various tools and platforms can be used to oversee student learning and to pull that learning together for assessment purposes. This webinar will also provide support for teachers who are seeking ways to infuse indigenous perspectives into the teaching-learning process.
