Collaboration To Collaborate One of the most powerful uses of the Internet in education is to collaborate with others. Teachers can collaborate with other teachers.
Students collaborate with other students.
Experts and educators all over the world become collaborators with the teachers and students in a classroom. No longer is distance and time a barrier for educational collaborations. The Franklin Institute Wind Project is an excellent example of how collaboration through the Internet can be a powerful tool in the classroom. Using the Franklin Institute as a resource a group of six schools worked together to learn about wind. The schools used the World Wide Web to publish the students work so that each school could view the projects created by students from the other collaborating schools.
