GEO - Leading and Learning by Example

Welcome to GEO on Ning - an extension of the World Virtual School (WVS) Project and the Global Educators Online initiative.
The big idea is to stimulate conceptive and fruitful sharing at all three levels of our worldwide educational community - regional directors, school administrators, and their faculty - around the theme of collaboration within and among the regions.
Please visit the GEO website at http://wvsgeo.org to see examples of collaborative work from each region, and feel free to contribute on this GEO on Ning site to any discussions, or to start some activity of your own based on our theme of collaboration.
Thanks very much, Ken Paynter - WVS Project Facilitator
P.S. - There is a very useful "sister site" to this one on Ning, designed for the interchange of ideas among international school technology director types at http://techdirector.ning.com.

When I'm done collecting the information, I'll post the full report here on the GEO Ning. If you'd like to take the survey and help me increase my sample size, please send me an email and I'll invite you.
