Packing. Important things first

Magali, Eddie and Happy Bear are ready for the conference, too

Here we are on the go again! This time we are packing to Morocco for the 23rd Annual iEARN Conference. iEARN is responsible to help more than 140 countries, 30,000 schools, 40,000 teachers and 2 million students to interact, share their culture and learn a lot from one another and I absolutely love to be part of this.

I found iEARN years ago in my search to promote significant learning experience for my students. I joined an online course to Adobe Youth Voices project and never stopped. Besides to implement AYV at school I also invited other teachers to join. It was the same with Teddy Bear. iEARN is represented in Brasil by NGO Educadores Globais which I also recommend to all educators who would like to join an international platform of collaborative projects www.educadoresglobais.org and www.iearn.org . The conference site provides all information about the event and will be daily updated http://www.iearn2017.ma.
