Horizon Project on the Horizon Project: International Schools Collaboration

A collaboration among five classes spread around the globe involved students from grades 10-12 looking at the future of society and education via a lens of the 2007 NMC Horizon Report. The project is coordinated via a Horizon Project wiki

This is a joint project between five classes ranging from grades 10-12 at the International School Dhaka, Bangladesh, Westwood Schools in Camilla, Georgia, Presbyterian Ladies College in Melbourne, Australia, the Vienna International School in Vienna, Austria and the Shanghai American School in Shanghai, China to research, discuss, and envision the education and society of the future according to the six trends outlined in the Horizon Report 2007 Edition.

Learn more about the project and people involved. This is a follow-up to an award winning Flat Classroom Project where student teams explored and discuss topics from the Thomas Friedman book The World is Flat.

We are excited to see this group undertake an examination of the Horizon Report's topics and this fits in directly with the NMC's effort to create a Horizon Project Research Agenda .
