Hello friends!
Your Dream Project Starts is the fourth
module of
Kidlink's I
Have a
Dream program. The module
is designed by
Kidlink teachers to support your participants with an
environment for success as they work collaboratively with online peers from
around the world. Within each lesson of this module you will find topics
for participants to discuss and suggested activities that require action.
During this module participants will implement the dream project which they
have designed. They will maintain, assess and revise their project activities
to ensure success during this implementation phase.
