Short bio or reason for joining Actionable Innovations Global:

I work for an educational nonprofit foundation whose mission is to facilitate global collaboration by providing technology (as needed) and professional development to schools both in the US and internationally. We currently have partner schools in 18 countries and I am always looking for excited teachers and administrators that are interested in providing a global collaboration experience to their students. Our program targets classes with students aged 8-14 years. Please contact me at hrooney@jdofoundation.org or 303-933-7790 if you are interested in learning about our free Global Collaboration Program opportunities.

Global education projects or initiatives in which you are involved (if applicable):

The JDO Foundation partners teachers internationally so that they can identify co-curricular lessons/projects for collaboration. We have a long-term model where teachers and their classes communicate weekly in written form and monthly via live video conference to complete collaborative work. JDO facilitates curricular planning and supports teachers with technology and training as needed. There is no fee associated with participation in our program and we accept applications on a rolling basis.
