Assisting our students in making global connections helps them develop their respectful mind. Understanding diversity and recognizing commonalities will help our students as they live and work in a global economy. Here are two ideas for digital media projects that will help promote the respectful mind in our youngest students.
View from My Classroom Project
Students take pictures of the view from their classroom window each month and post the pictures onto a wiki. Students from other classrooms around the world, are able to view the pictures and compare the view from their classroom and another classroom around the world. (This project idea is from Jenn Tech projects.)
My Favorite Food project
Students create a class photostory/imovie video sharing their favorite food. Each class posts their video onto a wiki or voicethread for classes around the world to view.
