Making Our World Better

For Teachers

Art by Jung from South Korea 2004

When students have an important purpose and an audience, and get feedback on what they say and do, they want to read, write, talk, draw, take pictures, and use numbers. They demand knowledge to realize their purpose. The program gives classroom tasks meaning for students, tends to increase cooperation, make classroom relationships more positive, and students more focused.

In the process, new educational contents are being built. About potential new solutions to contemporary problems, requirements, and rewards. Contents that teachers may use with their next set of students.

The program is also a means to networking and cooperation with other teachers throughout the world. Through Kidlink's "teacher rooms," experiences and answers to help requests may efficiently be dealt with by peers working on the same items in their classrooms. For many, personal links and friendships with other teachers continue to be useful long after the conclusion of the program.
