[ALBSA-Info] US-SEE Teacher Initiative

[Agron Alibali]

Bring the world into your classroom by integrating technology and global
issues into your curriculum...

Give your students the opportunity to work collaboratively with their peers
overseas...through the School Connectivity Project!

In the School Connectivity Project, students and teachers in the U.S. and
Southeast Europe work collaboratively on projects which promote mutual
understanding, tolerance, and sharing about cultural similarities and
history. The countries and regions in which the School Connectivity project
will take place are Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Kosovo,
Macedonia, Romania, Serbia and Montenegro, and the USA.

The program activities adapt easily to many classes, including Western
Civilization, European or American History, Civics, Morality and Ethics,
Journalism, computer and technology classes, or others. School Connectivity
is an alternative education program that helps you to increase your use of
technology in the classroom, broaden your students' perspectives, and give
your students the chance to be active participants with international
partners in a project that they help to create. What better preparation for
their participation in tomorrow's world?

The School Connectivity project is sponsored by the U.S. State Department
and implemented by Catholic Relief Services, and will begin in January 2003
in public and private schools. A competitive application process begins this
fall. For more information or to participate in this exciting program, call
Zoya Naskova, Domestic Education Officer, at (410) 951-7231, or email her at
znaskova at catholicrelief.org.
