Hudson, Rob Curry, Brenda Hough "How can we better understand and preserve the water ecosystems in our area?" This is a collaborative project about the water and communities of living things we find in the freshwater lakes, rivers and streams; the brackish water and salt marsh ecosystems of our Bay area wetlands and the saltwater environment found in the Oceans off of the Bay Area coast.  This project
involves a collaborative effort of 3 San Jose teachers and
their classes. As students are from different grade levels (2, 3
and 5) in different schools and in different districts, this project
was an example of continual collaboration. The teachers and
students extensively used email to communicate with the partnered
classes. The teachers also each had a Palm PDA to use as part of
the project. As a culminating experience, the 3 classes met one
another for the first time at a local lake towards the end of the
school year.This project was recognized by the 2005 California Media Festival for Outstanding Multi-School and Multi-Grade Collaboration for Multimedia. |
