Term 1 is over for Learn-Now and Authentic Encounters Online and much has prepared Term 2 for a stunning amount of hype and activity!80 individual students are currently enrolled, from homeschool settings, afterschool activity programmes and school groups. 17 schools are now aligned to Learn-Now, with 23 teachers - some of sole charge schools. Currently our age range of students is 5-15 year olds.
We're exposing action in Turkey, Brazil, England, Australia, Fiji, Germany, the USA and New Zealand, with plans afoot also, for Denmark and Sweden.
The key environments targetted to date involve our Global Horizons, Project Central and After School Activities learning areas. Within those fields, Maths Matters, International Cyber Safaris, Career Studies & Science Novelties feature, along with History 'with Sarah', with a look at WW2, Henry VIII & Elizabeth I.
Outside the Learn-Now programme, we've been honored to take the lead as the current 'Hotseat' guest for a module of study in progress by team of teachers at the Middlesex University, England. The module is developed in partnership with Core Education and SSAT. Learning through International Partnerships is the theme.
Alongside the Learn-Now programme and time with the Hotseat, is also a taste of contract work with the Virtual Learning Network with the NZ Ministry of Education. Creating an online environment for work around professional development work for Learning Communities Online, is all go!
