IDEAS FOR ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION
-
Electronic Pen Pals: messages are
exchanged with peers in another school, state, or country.
Consider cross-cultural or cross-age pairings or groups.
May be done at individual or group levels.
-
Peer-to-Peer Tutoring (aka electronic
mentoring): links students with others who provide
one-on-one assistance and guidance on a routine basis.
May use email or chat.
-
Round-Robin Publishing: a
class or group starts a story with one paragraph and sends
it to another class. Students work to add a new
paragraph to the story, and the story variations rotate
to the next class.
-
HTML Publishing: this may
be as simple as a student homepage created by typing in
a form, or as elaborate as creating entire web sites.
