The Global Virtual Classroom Challenge is an excellent resource for project-based learning. The excitement this project generates keeps students actively engaged in collaborating and learning with a team of global partners. Together, they create a website that reflects the mission of the Give Something Back International Foundation.
The Harrison Tech Club has been an active participant for the past two years. In our first year, we were teamed with Lincoln Elementary School in Oak Park, IL and Ein Ganim School in Petach Tikva, Israel. Together, we won the Gold Medal Award in the Elementary Division. Our website was called The School of Kindness.
This past year, our partners were the John Muir School in San Diego, CA and Raey Guang Elementary School in Ping Tung, Taiwan. Together, we won the Special Merit Award for our work in multimedia. Our website was called Friendship Blossoms.
