About GCD
Global Education Day is a 24-hour online event taking place on September 17, 2015, wherever you are located in the world. Students, teachers, and organizations are encouraged to host an virtual activity that will connect people on this day.
By registering these activities on this site, others can join in and experience global collaboration. In turn, we hope that this day will raise greater awareness of the need for connecting classrooms and education organizations around the world. Empowering student and teachers to create authentic, meaningful experiences will deepen learning and improve educational outcomes for all children. Our hope is that this event will build greater understanding of the possibilities of global education! http://www.globalcollaborationday.org/about.html
And, this year, the Distance Learning team is both a host and a partner for the event. At 9 AM CDT, ESC 13 DL will sponsor an event with retired Judge Laura Weiss who will help bring the US Constitution to life for students of all ages. Other programs during the 24 hour event can be found at http://www.globalcollaborationday.org/event-directory
