Hello everyone!

I am a professional musician working on an Instructional Technology degree while in the process of "giving back" to elementary school students in Harlem. The past few years I've been very interested in global collaborations within the classroom using 2.0 but am not quite sure how to set it up. I've a Ning site up and running ( http://ntoond2.ning.com/ ) but have yet to actually use it for anything more than my grad school class assignments.

I would like also to invite everyone to my site in an effort to better assist my efforts. The main focus is of course music and its shared global accessibilty between classrooms yet I enjoy diverse topics as well. For example, I've a question on my blog concerning the different adages or wise sayings of ones country and what they mean. I've posted the adage "A Stitch in Time Saves Nine".

What sayings are known in your country? Would you mind sharing them with me?

This is all very exciting! I look forward to my work here and on my site to learn more of 2.0, it uses and how better to assist in connecting children musically on an international scale.

Hi,

I found a good advice about setting up global collaborations strategies through the articles of Vicki Davis. She uses the term flatt classroom. Here are some links which explains what she means with this:

Hi all! Susan Brooks-Young here. I divide my time between the U.S. (Lopez Island, WA) and Canada (Vancouver, B.C). I'm eager to see how this will play out!

Hi Susan, welcome to this wonderful classroom. I live in Australia so my geography of Nth America is rather 'sketchy' but it must be wonderful to work between 2 countries. Since joining this classroom, I have made lots of friends from both the US and Canada, and have found my membership to be invaluable. Look forward to seeing your involvement here.

Hi, I'm Carolyn, and I"m from Austin, Texas--actually a native of Austin.

I"m also part of the Library 2.0 network. I'm interested in how web 2.0 will change education, libraries, etc.

My campus has a vision committee which is studying how to prepare and change our campus to meet the needs of students raised in a web 2.0 environment. I'm excited to be here!

I would love to be a fly on the wall in your campus vision committee. This is just where our school is starting to embark. We have suddenly realized that technology has taken a huge leap and we are getting left in the dust. I would love to be the one that keeps our school up in the forefront the things (little job security). If there is anyway I can "hear" what they are discussing I would love it! Do they have an online place they are "chatting"?
