Do COMPUTER EXPLORERS classes partner with kids in technology classes in the US and other countries?

Did you ever sing that old camp song “The More We Get Together, the Happier We’ll Be”?  What better way to promote understanding and appreciation for people in other countries than to communicate with them using today’s technology! Whether the venue is as simple as initiating an email exchange or as sophisticated as creating interactive blogs, podcasts, wikis, and using video-Skype calls, the more we get together virtually now, the happier our lives are likely to be in the future!

Although connecting with kids in other countries seems more exotic, we could also learn a lot about kids in our own country. Lifestyles and interests in the US seem pretty much the same if you believe the ads on television; but when you start traveling around the country, you will hear different accents, listen to different music, eat different food and play different sports!  (Your heart rate will never be the same after going to a high school basketball game in Indiana, a hockey game in Minnesota, or a football game in Texas!)

If you would like your class to partner with COMPUTER EXPLORERS classes, please send me an email.  Let me know what age the kids are, with which CE country or state you would like to partner, and we’ll make sure you find some friends!
