Globally Collaborative Project Ideas Inspired by Learning 2.0 A space inspired by the Learning 2.0 Conference in Shanghai on 14 - 16 September 2007. During the conference Kim Cofino moderated 2 very productive unconference sessions where conference participants developed 20 different ideas for connecting our classrooms. This is a space where we can start to cross-connect and further develop these ideas in a shared space. Please feel free to add, edit, embellish any and all of these ideas! Listed below are the 20 project ideas developed at the conference, each project is linked to another page within the wiki containing more details.

The uses for wikis in the classroom are endless. Teachers can create wikis for many purposes including communication to parents and community, display of student work, how-to tutorials for students, student created projects, etc. The Wiki Lesson Plan Idea page focuses on ways to incorporate the use of wikis into the curriculum. This page includes lesson ideas for wiki integration, wiki plan collection sites, and example sites.
