Knowledge learning all over the world.

This global community is a place for teachers and students to do collaborative projects and exchange information. The best thing is it allows teachers and students all over the world to participate in different programs and get familiar with life in other countries.

Firstly, this website has its own column for teachers. Teachers can exchange teaching experience there, and also they can exchange information of their students so that they can do some exchange projects with some other children together. For example, a teacher wrote a post about her class project. The children are willing to make some Christmas cards, and they want to exchange with children from some other areas. And another teacher gave her response saying she and her students would be excited to exchange Christmas cards with them. I think it is a great opportunity for the students to interactive with some other kids through language learning program. Also, there were some teachers looking for English language practice partners for their students because the students’ native language is Spanish. This is a very effective way for the teachers to share resources through this platform.

Secondly, for the students there are also special designed program. Students can learn knowledge from different aspects such as culture, language, geography, etc. There are even free e-movies offered for the kids so that they can learn some valuable information with visual aids. This website also allows students to do storytelling. They can make their stories, watch others’ stories, and also they can share the stories with other audience. Learning from peers is always a good way to let knowledge leave deep impression to the students.

Last but not least, the community offers forums both for teachers and students. There are different posts discussing different issues there. As I have stated above, both teachers and students can use it to ask for help, share information, and complete series of interesting collaborative projects.

In the future I think I will start to use this website from posting my problems in teaching. Sometimes we read books to search for answers, but some other times, experienced teachers are even better than books. There are so many situations which are not included in the books, so it is a good place for teachers to ask for help and suggestion. Also, I will introduce this website to my students, I am sure they will find something they are interested in there. Also I will search opportunities to complete some exchange collaborative projects with students from other countries. I think it is always meaningful and interesting to get to know other people’s life and then gain some knowledge from it.
