We are organizing a new group of edubloggers and other educators to expand the partnership that Sharon Peters and Konrad Glogowski began in South Africa this summer with Teachers Without Borders. We need lots of volunteers to contribute to the planning and implementation of this. Please join us and share your ideas. We can make a difference and these teachers need our support. Listen to the WIOW2 webcast on EdTechTalk for 8-19-08 to hear more about it.
Mission or Purpose is a precise description of what an organization does. It should describe the business the organization is in. It is a definition of "why" the organization exists currently. Each member of an organization should be able to verbally express this mission.
A mission statement is a concise description of who an organization is and what it does. When properly constructed, a mission statement can provide a clear, concise description of an organization's overall purpose. This can enable large groups of individuals to work in a unified direction toward a common cause.
