Join elementary students from schools all over North America as we connect together through our Museums in our Museum Connections telecollaborative project.  Travel with us in this journey through time as we discover what we can learn about the world and ourselves from our amazing past and what impact our past has on us today and for our future.  Children will learn from "Museum Experts" from all over North America in our online interviews to learn more about Museums, our communities,  and their diverse histories.

During this project we will ask ourselves these essential questions:

• How and why do we study the past?

• What can we learn about ourselves and others from history?

• What can we learn from artifacts, historians, and museums?

• How is the past of our own community like/unlike the past of other communities around North America?

• How has time impacted our own community and others?

• Can we predict our future from our history?

If you or your colleagues would like to be a part of our project, please contact Michelle Speight at:  mmspeight@cbe.ab.ca  Your role in this telelearning project can be as simple or as complicated as you like!  Find out more about the incredible power of telecollaborative learning and its amazing impact on your children's learning!
