Want to have your iEARN Project included in the 2015-2016 iEARN Project Book? Looking for South African initiated projects…

What is iEARN?
iEARN is a non-profit organization made up of over 30,000 schools and youth organizations in more than 140 countries. iEARN empowers teachers and young people to work together online using the Internet and other new communications technologies. Over 2,000,000 students each day are engaged in collaborative project work worldwide. There are over 150 projects in iEARN, all designed and facilitated by teachers and students to fit their curriculum and classroom needs and schedules. Projects take place in the iEARN Collaboration Centre.  To join, participants select an online project and look at how they can integrate it into their classroom. Take a look at last year’s project book:

More about project submission
(This part of the post is mostly taken from the iEARN.org website at http://goo.gl/o9l4FL)

a) Are you facilitating an iEARN project? Do you have an idea for a new iEARN project? The 2015-2016 iEARN Project Book will be published again in early September 2015 and we would love to include all new and active iEARNprojects in the collection!

b) If you are facilitating a currently active iEARNproject, please submit an updated iEARNProject Template using this form: https://iearn.wufoo.com/forms/iearn-project-template/ This project template can be submitted in any language. Please note that ALL projects -- including those currently listed in iEARN, must submit an updated project template in order to be considered renewed and included in the book.

c) If you have an idea for a new iEARN project, please first post your project idea here in the Teachers Forum in this folder: "Do you have an idea for a new iEARN project? Post it here!" or, for students, the Youth Forum.

d) You can also share your project idea in the iEARN News Flash e-newsletter by sending a brief description of your idea to newsflash@iearn.org. If you find partners who are interested in collaborating with you and your students, please fill out an iEARN Project Template at https://iearn.wufoo.com/forms/iearn-project-template/

Submission deadline
The submission deadline for the 2015-2016 iEARN Project Book is Friday, August 14th, 2015. The book will then be published in early September, and the Project Space of the iEARN Collaboration Centre will also be updated with current project information as you submit your new project templates and http://iearn.org/about
