 * mpowers3 || 23:03 || Maggie in Philly here! I'm a lower school tech coordinator and excited to talk with everyone about enabling global collab. #globalclassroom ||
 * iEARNUSA || 23:04 || @mpowers3 Learned some awesome stuff about virtual exchange brain research today! [Spoiler: #globalclassroom collab. is a good thing] ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:04 || Want to use Skype to have multiple classrooms chat-don't want to have to pay the bucks! lol #globalclassroom #plpnetwork #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:05 || @iEARNUSA Awesome! Can't wait to hear more about it! #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:06 || Q1 So ... WHY should teachers and students explore ways to share, connect, and collaborate globally? #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:07 || @HeidiHutchison Can you say more? To have multiple classrooms chat simultaneously? Have you tried Google Hangouts? #globalclassroom ||
 * iEARNUSA || 23:07 || RT @mpowers3: RT @mpowers3: Q1 So ... WHY should teachers and students explore ways to share, connect, and collaborate globally? #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:08 || To prepare for global citizenship,gain perspective, promote peace and tolerance,learn from/with eachother #globalclassroom #globalclassroom ||
 * iEARNUSA || 23:10 || @mpowers3 Prof. Rebecca Saxe, Director, Social Cognitive Neuroscience Lab, MIT studies benefits of virtual exchanges. #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:10 || BTW, check out this Google Doc http://t.co/u7EHrosH to hear others' ideas and share your own about #globaled collaboration! #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:10 || My idea is:http://t.co/S22VvDsl Google Hangout costs money multiple to do classes at once. #globalclassroom #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:11 || A1: To organically be able 2 discuss different global cultures, stereotypes, assumptions, and ideas w/Ss in meaningful ways #globalclassroom ||
 * hechternacht || 23:11 || @iEARNUSA Tell me more about the brain research! #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:12 || RT @HeidiHutchison: To prep 4 global citizenship, gain perspective, promo peace & tolerance,learn from/with each other #globalclassroom ||
 * iEARNUSA || 23:12 || @mpowers3 @hechternacht 'Empathy increases as people learn names and faces'" - Rebecca Saxe. So #globalclassroom = empathy creation ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:13 || @HeidiHutchison Skype is free for multiple classes? That's great! I know you can do 6 at a time for free via Google. #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:14 || Yes! We teach empathy-hard to teach but kids do learn it.Sympathy 1st then empathy follows. #globlaclassroom #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:14 || Love it! RT @iEARNUSA @hechternacht 'Empathy increases as people learn names & faces'" - R. Saxe. So #globalclassroom = empathy creation ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:14 || @mpowers3 But Google is within Canada and USA. I want 4 different countries at once! #globalclassroom #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:14 || It definitely is! RT @jacpatterson: @mpowers3 Because it is fun! #globalclassroom ||
 * iEARNUSA || 23:16 || @mpowers3 Why #globalclassroom? Let's kids take action on current events. We're linking US-Pakistani classes today around #Malala's story. ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:16 || Has anyone used empathy & other socio-emotional aspects as reasons "why" 2 do #globaled work in school? To convince others? #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:16 || If we begin when st.s r young, and they put a face with a name, maybe there will be less violence...maybe #globalclassroom #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:18 || @iEARNUSA That's great! Suggestions for teachers who feel #globaled is an "extra" that they don't have room/time for? #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:19 || We need to be careful of putting out quality stuff though.Does every thought need validation from the universe? #justsayin' #globalclassroom ||
 * murcha || 23:19 || MT @iEARNUSA: Why #globalclassroom? Lets kids take action on current events. We're linking US-Pakistani classes 2day re #Malala's story. ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:19 || @HeidiHutchison Gotcha! & u're only looking for real-time video? Voicethread & other tools could be neat 4 asynchronous :) #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:19 || Q2: So once you figure out the WHY ... WHAT does global collaboration look like? How can we describe it to others? #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:20 || @murcha That's awesome and so, so important! #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:21 || I think it needs to go beyond a connection. I want Global Collab to help build relationships, understanding, relationships. #globalclassroom ||
 * hechternacht || 23:22 || MT @iEARNUSA: Why #globalclassroom? Kids, action, current events. Linking US-Pakistani classes today around #Malalas story #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:23 || @HeidiHutchison Agree! I think when relationships form, that's when u create a lasting impact. It becomes so much more real #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:23 || Global collab should be defined b/w the teachers doing it. Communication is key for great collab.- #globalclassroom ||
 * iEARNUSA || 23:23 || @mpowers3 If you view empath & empowering students as an "extra" in the classroom, then #globaled #globalclassroom may not work ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:24 || Collaboration to me means what you start with looks a little different in the end. It's not the you or the me, but the we. #globalclassroom ||
 * connectaschool || 23:24 || RT @HeidiHutchison: RT @HeidiHutchison: Global collab should be defined b/w the teachers doing it. Communication is key for great collab.- #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:25 || We need to MODEL for students how to collaborate and be global citizens! Show them we are a work in progress, all of us! #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:25 || @iEARNUSA True, I guess it comes back to helping clarify that #globaled CAN empower & foster empathy & therefore = valuable #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:26 || RT @HeidiHutchison We need to MODEL 4 Ss how 2 collab & be global citizens! Show them we are a work in progress, all of us! #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:26 || So, let's get to the HOW... :) I need help, can you tell? :) #globalclassroom ||
 * iEARNUSA || 23:26 || RT @HeidiHutchison: RT @HeidiHutchison: So, let's get to the HOW... :) I need help, can you tell? :) #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:26 || What about concrete descriptions/products to explain what #globaled & collaboration look like? #globalclassroom ||
 * iEARNUSA || 23:27 || @HeidiHutchison Remember that asymchronous is powerful part of #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:27 || Example? #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:28 || @iEARNUSA What does that mean exactly? "Asymchronous" #globalclassroom ||
 * iEARNUSA || 23:28 || @HeidiHutchison Keep it simple. Share names & faces http://t.co/8wzDx7g0 #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:28 || Q3: HOW can we help tchrs overcome challenges & obstacles faced by teachers interested in flattening their classrm walls? #globalclassroom ||
 * iEARNUSA || 23:30 || @HeidiHutchison Asynchronous = e-mail, lettes over a week'/months's time, for example. Not live videoconferencing, fSkype. #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:30 || @HeidiHutchison HOW: 1 way is to start local & grow global. Collab. w/i your classrm, then school, then state/country ... #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:31 || @HeidiHutchison I'd also recommend checking out other organizations & tchrs already global e.g., @iearnusa #kinderchat #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:31 || @hechternacht Did Quadblogging last year...maybe I need to just try one classroom and then move to more if possible. #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:32 || @hechternacht I work at a Quaker school where we do a Meeting every week and share our thoughts. It can be powerful. #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:33 || I've found that the more minds you can get together, the better brainstorming & creative ideas you find for global collab! #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:33 || Overcoming obstacles: Helping teachers connect curriculum to globally collaborating would help. #globalclassroom ||
 * iEARNUSA || 23:34 || @HeidiHutchison Asynchronous, but on same day: Plant a daffodil bulb: http://t.co/tmGDu0Y8 fly a kite: http://t.co/yPS0C2g7 #globalclassroom ||
 * iEARNUSA || 23:34 || RT @HeidiHutchison: RT @HeidiHutchison: Overcoming obstacles: Helping teachers connect curriculum to globally collaborating would help. #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:35 || @HeidiHutchison Yes, I've found that obstacle too. Can be tough to explain how units can be expanded to have global lens #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:35 || Example: Look at your essential questions in curriculum and post on Twitter for ideas. #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:36 || @HeidiHutchison Wonder if u could try 4 different UStream channels @ 1x, 1 for each class? Not sure how it works out of US #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:36 || RT @HeidiHutchison: Example: Look at your essential questions in curriculum and post on Twitter for ideas. #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:37 || I really want to connect to talk and discuss things that r going on in the world to promote tolerance and empathy.#hopeful #globalclassroom ||
 * iEARNUSA || 23:37 || @mpowers3 @HeidiHutchison How we help US teachers w/ #CommonCore integration of #globalclassroom colloboration: http://t.co/zSHZITtD ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:38 || @HeidiHutchison Philosophy of Quaker mtg could be neat 2 share w/other classes. Have u ever held a live 1 w/another class? #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:39 || Gosh, I am lucky I do not have to adhere to strict standards, although standards r important. #luckytobeatFriendsSchool #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:40 || @mpowers3 No! But great idea! #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:41 || @iEARNUSA Need to show examples of global collab. ideas to them that would work. #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:41 || I'm always interested in more idea for How to introduce #global collaboration in early yrs (preK onward). Thoughts? #globalclassroom ||
 * murcha || 23:41 || What could global classrooms do to support #malalas story? Students, tchrs feel strongly re girls education #globalclassroom eg plant flower ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:42 || @mpowers3 The more I think about your idea, the more I love it! How would I get a participant for that idea? #globalclassroom ||

 * mpowers3 || 23:43 || @HeidiHutchison You could start w/another Friends school in a diff location but I think lots of classes wld be interested! #globalclassroom ||
 * murcha || 23:44 || @HeidiHutchison Why dont u try 2 find partner thru #globalclassroom chat ie twitter to get participant. Add hashtag & see who wants to join ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:44 || @mpowers3 I think posting ideas and having teachers spread the word. Simple ideas for the young ones though like... #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 23:45 || @murcha Another great idea! I think fear sometimes gets me a little bit. My colleagues would laugh at me now, but it's true #globalclassroom ||
 * mpowers3 || 23:45 || Q5: WHERE can tchrs find international partners, and access PD to support integration of global collab across curriculum? #globalclassroom ||

 * mpowers3 || 23:46 || @HeidiHutchison I can see if anyone at my school is interested. Would you want another 4th grade class? #globalclassroom ||
