Michael Graffin, @mgraffin, is co-founder of the Global Classroom projects, a worldwide network of free global projects for all grade levels.

There are some awesome previous shows on global projects including an interview with IT Integrator Theresa Allen who has put global collaboration at every age level of her school, Encouraging Classrooms Globally from some teachers participating in “A Week in the Life,” and more…

Who will be interested in this podcast episode? teachers and curriculum directors who are planning global connections for early next year.

One of my favorite things said in this podcast was when Michael talked about some of the best projects that they’ve hosted and how the efforts to save the rhinos went somewhat viral through a powerful project. I also enjoy how they have a global scrapbook passing around the world. There are many ways to connect and share online. Join in!

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
