Online Projects that you can join:

One good strategy for teaching with the Internet is to join a project that is already organized. There are several ongoing projects that allow teachers and students to interact with specialists from all of the world, share information with each other, and participate in real research. Below are some links to projects. Feel free to explore and if you have any projects you would like to share or if you would like to invite other teachers to a project you are doing with your students, go to the Mentoring section and fill in the form! We'll be glad to help you!
