Kids Learning and Communicating

Communication is the key to success in our society. Those who communicate well often rise to the top. One way to help our students be more successful is to help them learn to communicate ideas and learning to others. Kidlink is one way to do this. It is a website devoted to helping children learn to communicate, collaborate and share learning online. Projects on this site incorporate curriculum from around the world. Their are projects such as Time Machine where teachers can sign up and their students can visit and record their responses. They can see others responses. Users to the Kidlink site must register and teachers must also register and sign up for projects. Here is another link to an article making the case for using technology in education.
