Last Call for Horizon Project 2008

Home » Education Trends and Topics » Flat Classroom and Global Collaboration » Last Call for Horizon Project 2008

Now that Julie and I are back from conferences, we are furiously working on the Horizon Project 2008 — setting the framework, etc.

We’ve set up a form for those interested in this project using Google Forms (it automatically enters it in a spreadsheet.) We are particularly keen on finding additional classrooms in the far east, south America, and Africa — so if you have friends there, please pass it along. (http://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?key=pqJ4dDANW0OwSWZq3GAMCPg)

What will we be studying?

Also, expect to see a major flavor of Wikinomics throughout the project!

What are the timelines?

Please share on your blogs and bookmarks — we would appreciate it. We will also need sounding boards/ peer review classrooms, expert advisors, and judges. More on that later.

Vicki Davis

Vicki Davis has been an educator and IT director in Georgia since 2002. Today, she also works as an instructional technology coach, staying side-by-side with active teachers and students so her work stays grounded in real classrooms.

She's a mom of three, wife of one, and loves talking about the wise, transformational use of technology for teaching and doing good in the world.

She has blogged at the Cool Cat Teacher Blog since 2005 and hosts the 10 Minute Teacher Podcast and Cool Cat Teacher Talk (radio, public access TV, YouTube, and all major podcast platforms), interviewing remarkable educators around the world. Vicki focuses on what unites us — a quest for truly remarkable, life-changing teaching and learning. The goal of her work is to provide actionable, encouraging, relevant ideas for teachers, grounded in truth and shared with love.

If you talk to Vicki for long, she'll encourage you to "Relate to Educate," to "innovate like a turtle," or to be "a remarkable teacher." She loves homemade sourdough bread and cinnamon rolls and runs half marathons with her sisters. You can usually find her laughing with her students or digging into a book.

Thank you for reading, sharing, and telling your friends about the work we do here! - Vicki

I’m excited about this and hope that I will be able to help you even if I am not in the classroom. Just let me know what I can do.
