The Council on Standards for International Educational Travel is proud to present the 4th Annual Global Classroom Awards. The purpose of these awards is to recognize schools that actively support international youth exchange by promoting school-wide feelings of inclusiveness and global curiosity while hosting international exchange students or encouraging their students to travel and study abroad. These schools help make exchange a truly thrilling one for international students, the student body, and the community at large.
The winning schools will each receive a $500 scholarship for one of its students to study abroad or to be put towards increasing school-wide international awareness. Also, one representative from each of the winning schools will be invited to the 2011 National School Conference and receive complementary registration, one night accommodation, and airfare.
The deadline for applications has been extended. The new deadline is Friday, February 25, 2011.

Distance Learning Course: Teaching about the World with Technology
From http://people.ehe.ohio-state.edu/ssge/upcoming-courses/online-course
DO YOU want to learn how to use e-learning to teach about the world? Perhaps to help students understand current events, diverse cultures, or global environmental, political, economic, environmental change and interconnectedness?
In SP11’s 925.28 you will:
* Explore how teachers in several countries are using Web 2.0 tools and other e-learning strategies to teach about a variety of K-12 world-related topics and subjects.
* Experiment with diverse ways to communicate online, access primary sources, create cross-cultural learning experiences, find ways to collaborate with teachers, students, and organizations in other countries.
This is not a course in technology. It is a course in using e-learning technologies to improve student understanding of their world and intercultural skills in working across cultures. You will learn how teachers are using tools like podcasts, blogs or social networking sites but you will not have lessons on how to make your own.
