La plage d'or s'tendait, brillante,  l'infini, et devant elle, la mer crase de soleil ondulait, lascive. Eblouie de lumire et de chaleur, Edwina marchait  petits pas sereins, l'esprit vide de grandes penses, gotant simplement de tous ses sens la uitude du lieu.

L'ocan endormi exhalait parfois, comme dans un souffle, une timide vague frange d'cume blanche qui venait mourir  ses pieds, lasse dj d'un si long voyage. Le sable, insatiable, bien vite l'absorbait, ne laissant pour le souvenir que la trace courb et sale de son ultime approche et, derrire elle, sur son passage, quelques petits coquillages.

It works: it arrives well here. So, I copy it to get an idea of how it arrives at yours:
                                     
            
                                                   
                  
This is ASCII from 130 up to 170

That's one of some problems coming up from the transfer through internet:
The To: - line will never be translated in Internet, so we can't see the
addressee, if it is not repeated in the text.
It would be nice if all writers repeat the name in the first textline...
(even in the kids-echos...)

I wonder what the thoughts of others are about this project....

               Do you teach History or Social Studies?
   What do we teach our students about another country or culture?

   Are the conclusions we reach about other people's history valid,      or are their notions about what happened in their past     different to what we believe happened ?

The International History Exchange project seeks to link students around the world to share the views they have about the history of the countries and cultures they study.  It enables students to gather resources not normally available to them via communication with their peers.   From the initial opinions about an area of study, through development of theories, right up to conclusions, students can actively consider and compare the views of local people...living History!


Timing and content of the communications are negotiated between participants. Students will have obligations to the people they are communicating with, providing opinions and facts to help their friends   overseas.


Everyone benefits from the information gathered, especially the extra input from a unique resource, which may well challenge first thoughts.


We have some great ideas that we would like to develop but it needs more than just us! You can also become part of an International History  Exchange by contacting Ramsey Imam on this echo or dropping me a line. We  are excited by this project and invite any expressions of interest!


Look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you so much!  I have thoroughly enjoyed reading all the posts. Unfortunately, this project had a specific timeline and was supposed to end November 30.  I have posted a message to that effect.

If GVN participants would like to continue posting articles, I would be happy to continue as moderator.  We could request an extension or just start a completely new GVN with a different set of guidelines.

What do you suggest?

Best regards,
     Chris

Organization: FidoNet node 1:3820/83 - Morningside K12 BBS, Brownsville TX

Hi everyone,

Has anyone heard about the International Student Space Simulation project created by Jerry Bernhardt in Conroe, Texas?  We at Morningside Elementary are going to participate in this year's Space Simulation and would like to establish contacts with other I.S.S.S. participants.
        
I'm not certain, but I _think_ we are the only elementary school in our area that is participating.  We will conduct a Saturday Academy that consists of 8 consecutive all-day Saturday sessions.  Initially, the students will be taken on a field trip to Space Center Houston to learn about space flight and the history of NASA.  The following Saturday and each Saturday thereafter, students will be placed in cooperative groups of four to engage in many hands-on, minds-on space-related activities.
        
We will build a Space Simulator Habitat in which four student astronauts will live and conduct experiments.  Communication between the habitat and Mission Control will be accomplished through the use of modem-equipped computers and video cameras.
        
Since this is Morningside's first "launch" of a simulator, we would sincerely appreciate any tips or guidelines you can offer that would contribute to the success of our mission.
        
                                                Best regards,
                                                Chris

 Thanks for the note Helen, my message was in response to an idea from Ian Howard in England. We will be on holiday until the end of January but I would welcome such a discussion. I have serious concerns about what K12 is doing to children's response to e.mail (see Teacher Chat)and need to do some work on how we use this medium in my school.
Have a good Christmas.

I think the best way to do pen pals is to establish contact with one other  
classroom and exchange names for pen pals as a starter.

The other good way is to write to someone who already is writing in the chat  
area.  However too many pen pals is overwhelming to some of the scribes.  I  
would guess a maximum of 3-5 pen pals for a start at the elem ed level.

Happy winter holidays to you too.

We have had access to K12 since August and initially were rapt with what we have been able to do. Our horizons were suddenly as wide as we wanted them to be. The children in my small rural school sent messages out and within a week, we had replies from children in three states in USA, from Canada, and from Australia. What a thrill. We sent messages back to the children who had answered us and are still waiting for replies. For a while, children were arriving at school and zipping through the Elementary Cha

I notice dozens-or is it hundreds of messages from children saying- "Will someone out there please write to me?" I wonder how many of those children are being turned off e.mail for good. I really think we teachers have a responsibility to ensure that children who are given access to this medium are aware that they ha


ve a responsibility to maintain integrity and once making contact, to do their best to keep it going. This is not a toy to be played with- these are real people this end and it saddens me to find that they are losing that thrill found in communicating with another human being somewhere out there and finding that they are interested enough in me to answer. We will be on holiday from 18th December through till the end of January and I shall endeavour to find keypals for my group and hopefully, teachers who a


gree with me. Kia ora.

Thanks Liz

I intend to set up small projects for all of my students. They will be expected to submit hard copy of correspondence containing say six letters from them and six from their respondent.  I will give some indication as to what I might like them to share and for different classes give them different levels:

            personal (penpal)
            discuss the course
            offer something about Dunedin/New Zealand
            get some info about another place

The important thing for me is that they get some idea of the power of this thing.  They must gain some knowledge they didn't have before and meet some people(make some meaningful contacts).  I would expect them to explore grobally and respond to people that are on the network rather than send out flyers  in the hope of getting an answer.  It would be great if some of them could make contact with you guys.  There is a very real chance of them meeting someday!

I will be working with 50 Form 6 students and 25 form 7 students.  The junior school will probably be looked after by Peter Hills who will have about 200 students in the 3rd and 4th form.  All of the seniors will be expected to correspond on a 1 to 1 basis.  The junior classes will probably start by sending out some group notes

Happy Christmas

Linus

Hi, Richard.  Thank you for replying about doing penpals with our students.
For now I am having the students prepare messages offline, so that we don't
spend so much phone time.  I am sending the individual messages to you from
me to you over the K-12 Teacher Chat, with the students name as the name of
the message.  Later after the kids get to "chatting" back and forth, maybe
we can use the Student Chat area.  You should have two messages besides this
one from me.  One will be from Julie and one from Ben.  We hope you receive
them and that soon you can get your students to write back.  You could start
sending messages to "friend," just as we did today, until we get to know
names mutually.  It should be fun.  It may be a little slow, because I only
see these grade 6 library students once a week and can only do about 2-3
messages in the 1/2 hour time period.  Thanks again.  To you and your
students have a nice holiday at Christmas time.
