"Program encourages kids’ global learning"

Submitted by a-stellank on

 

December 2, 2011
 
"CHARLES TOWN - With the help of students from around the world, students at Charles Town Middle School discovered a new enthusiasm for math and global learning.
 
For four days, Sherri Mackey's 86 sixth-grade math students at Charles Town Middle School participated in a math unit solving problems and interpreting graphs, data and statistics with math classes in Russia, Italy and Illinois through Kidlink.
 
Kidlink is a user-owned-and-operated program, meaning teachers like Massey can create a unit and post it on Kidlink or search for an existing unit. Classrooms across the world are then matched to the unit and begin the project together.
 
"They have the whole world of knowledge sitting in front of them, but that was my biggest goal, to use what they know best, and that's the future for them, to find everything they can on that laptop," said Massey.
 
Massey said Kidlink engaged the students in math, allowing them to use technology skills they already possess while also teaching the students about global technology and learning and becoming a global citizen."

Geoquiz

Progetto di classe consigliato per ragazzi di 10/13 anni che prevede l'uso della posta elettronica (e-mail) e di Internet per la ricerca.

Copre un'area curricolare molto vasta: la scrittura, la lettura del testo, storia, arte, geografia e lettura di cartine e grafici. Favorisce la collaborazione e l'auto-apprendimento.

Il progetto prevede un momento iniziale di socializzazione tra le classi partecipanti che invieranno foto e testi di presentazione sulla propria pagina in Kidlink. Successivamente i nove indizi preparati dalle classi saranno messi online tre alla settimana e nel corso di tre settimane ogni classe potrà fare una domanda sì/no alle altre.

Vincitrice del gioco sarà la classe che avrà indovinato tutte le località.

Partecipazione

Per partecipare, i ragazzi dovranno rispondere alle 4 domande di Kidlink e i docenti si dovranno registrare al progetto. I docenti dovranno inoltre iscriversi a Kidlink rispondendo alle 4 domande al fine di ottenere il nickname e la password che permetteranno l'amministrazione delle pagine in Kidlink.
