Ever felt you would like to get involved in an international project that linked your students with others not only in Europe but also in Asia? The Asia Europe Classroom Network offers that possibility. English is the language of communication and so students from countries where English is not a first language tend to be age 13 and upwards. There is no financial commitment and while exchanges may happen, they are not an integral part of the network. Students and teachers simply need access to the web.
Adrienne Webb has been a teacher at St. Michael's Holy Faith Secondary School in Finglas since 1982, interrupted by a secondment to NCTE to the SIP initiative where she succeeded Seamus Knox as National Co-ordinator. She is a teacher of Geography, Mathematics and ICT, as well as holding the position of ICT co-ordinator in the school. From the days of punch card operation in UCD to using interactive whiteboards in class, she continues to take a keen interest in ICT and the possiblilites it brings to classroom interactions. She completed her M Ed (Digital Learning) in 2008, developing a local model of CPD delivery. Having served as secretary to CESI for five years, she is currently co-chairperson with Tom Kendall.
