Welcome to a New Space
Welcome to Global Issues.
This is the space that we are going to use for the last month of school to examine some of the major issues that are happening in our world.
What are the things that concern you? Where do you think our globe is headed? How do you think these things might impact your future?
Ning is new for us. A ning is a social network. You can each set up your own page, a blog, and post discussions for people to contribute to and form groups. This will be a learning experience for all of us as I have never used a ning in the classroom before. Lets see what you can do in our last month!
