About

This blog is home base for something completely new; the thin walled classroom. In this space, two classrooms from two separate countries are learning to be one class even though they are separated by thousands of kilometres. This is the second year long experiment in networked learning, globalisation, and the power of learning. Last school year we learned many things about stretching education into the twenty first century.

    Wow! This is a great concept! It really pushes the envelope both for the technology and the students and teachers. I would be very interested in trying something like this or even at the very least finding out about the results from your experiment.

    Great idea!

    I love the idea of learning with another school miles away. You guys might not know one and other personaly, but you still share ideas.
    I am going to recommend this to our classroom.
