This good work was done by teachers: Eric Appleton (Fortune Society) Sam Bernstein (Boston Chinatown Neighborhood Center), Wendy Quinones (Community Learning Center, Cambridge, MA) Pat O'Brien (formerly at the CLC Cambridge,MA),Maura Donnelly (Queens Community College, NYC) and Susan Gaer, Santa Anna College, Santa Ana, CA, and, of course, their students. There are teachers across the world whose students are involved in a Web-based classroom virtual visit project hosted by Susan Gaer and me. The classes have a multi-month exchange using Web pages and e-mail. They iintroduce themselves, their schools and their communities and have dialogues. Many are adult ESL classes but some are ABE or GED, and some are classes of school children so it can be cross-generational. For more information, go to: http://www.otan.us/webfarm/emailproject/school.htm For more information on project-based learning and examples of adult ESOL student projects using the Web, go to Susan Gaer's Online Projects Web page: http://www.otan.us/webfarm/emailproject/school.htm All the best, David djrosen@comcast.net On Thursday, December 4, 2003, at 06:30 PM, Samuel McGraw III wrote: > David, > > Nice student websites...keep-up the good work. > > > Samuel McGraw III M.
