World Education Connection

For all Students

To be SEEN - Guided by an adult, and using a variety of audio

and visual technology tools, WEC connects students in grades

5-12, locally and globally.

To be HEARD - The students who are connected speak about

real life issues related to themselves, their community and the

world.

To be VALUED - Students feel a greater sense of belonging,

accepted by their classmates, connected to their own

community, and learn to respect the culture of their

global teammate as well as their own.

CONNECT

We connect your classroom with another classroom in another part of the world. This becomes your global teammate for the entire school year of September – May of the following year. Teaching the skills of what is needed in today’s interconnected world.

COLLABORATE

As a global team, you will get to know each other and learn about each other’s culture. Global teammates will collaborate on a name and logo and support each other throughout the year.

CELEBRATE

On May 9th, 2018, we will host the second annual World Education Day Of Connection. This day will bring together all the global teams in celebration of the connections made, share the collaborations on projects that contributed to the greater understanding of all, and hear from exciting guest speakers.
