A highlight of participating in iEARN projects has been establishing close friendships in different parts of the world. Teaching my students that people all over the world share many similarities with them, but also have many differences, and learning about them, is very enriching. These learning opportunities foster...

"I cannot imagine another organization in which global, student-centered, professional and compassionate teachers work so closely in so many areas of our shared world on behalf of their students. This is iEARN."

IEARN has sincerely opened my mind in terms of  how I deliver the content in class to students. I have realised that it is better to use project based learning than just using traditional ways.

Que estamos en un mundo donde creemos que conocemos mucho y al compartir con mis compañeros me he dado cuanta que aún tengo un mundo entero que conocer, que debo aprender a: aprender y desprender, que existen personas que quieren apoyarnos y ayudarnos a mejorar este mundo compartiendo los conocimientos que tienen...

The iEARN course was a dream come true for me. I have been searching for a teachers network that goes beyond my country's borders and I now have a network i can trust. This has opened new teaching opportunities for me, as well as a team to support me. I feel empowered to approach other teachers in iEARN to start a...

It has been an adventure of sorts jumping into this course and all the possibilities iEARN offers to educators and students alike, and I am grateful to all of my American and Turkish colleagues for jumping in with me and not being frustrated by newbie questions and concerns. I look forward to hearing about how your...

It improved my communication skills through technology. I learned a lot from other people's experiences. It motivated me to foster global awareness in my school.

We really have a task ahead of us, not just towards our learners but mainly our colleagues/fellow educators. The course has demystified a number of things. I can confidently carry on my project and even guide others to do so. I am forever grateful for the opportunity. We need to deliberately mentor our colleagues for...

The video-zoom-meetings were very affirming and touching to me. Seeing each one of my classmates, quasi face-to-face, in his or her office/home: each culture is represented intimately. That feeling of being able to meet closely each one of us: it is the kind of experience I want to allow my students to have. In that...

iEARN breaks walls between countries and makes the world a better place to live.

Indeed iEARN offers us educators an opportunity to practice project-based learning which is not that common here in Uganda as you may attest. We have an opportunity to shape the next generation of global citizens, so let’s give them an opportunity to learn with the world.

I was surprised by the amount of things we have in common, especially the teaching concern and the desire to overcome and face global challenges that are

Many people are engaged in making a better world through simple attitudes. Also, there are wonderful people who I can learn from, who love what they do and are willing to preserve and prepare the future of our planet. There is a song in Brazil which says: "we can not permit that unrighteousness of the world seems to...

Connecting with teachers from other countries is a great help in searching for global solutions for common problems and learning about how we can improve our teaching skills and make learning a fun, interesting and rewarding experience. Through sharing, it is possible to make improvements on many areas that need...

It has been a very useful course, I advise other educators to take the course as it clears many doubts that one has when starting projects, that involve their students in global learning projects as a meaningful experience for them, from which students learn more and better, let them know other cultures and share...

I have very much enjoyed reading and getting to know a little more about educators from other parts of the world.  I applaud everyone's effort for making a difference in our students' lives, not many teachers are as passionate as you are.  The Collaboration Center has opened up a window of possibilities for future...

I felt like I became a more globally-aware teacher through this course. The forums and class activities were most useful to my development.

The students are very excited to be able to communicate with their global peers. I want to innovate in my teaching and iEARN opens its doors to do so. I have been asleep with regard to technology, now you are pushing me to change. Thanks for all your advice and comments about your experience. I'm taking notes and...

I am preparing my students for the project and I believe it will be great. The course helped me develop ideas about projects, significantly contributing to my training as an English language teacher. I am prepared and excited to continue.
