Hi Group,
I've been doing more thinking on the topic of "local" and I think that we can create this project to be used wherever local is to the teacher using it.  We are creating lesson plans, projects and it would be great if is where something that each of us could use in different locations.
What do you think?

As far as ideas... we have two right now and need feedback from everyone.  The first one is a  living history museum where students are historical characters.  The second one is having the students creating different technology driven projects about their local history, including videos, movies, things like that.  The students would have to be the researchers, writers, directors, maybe actors in their projects and then it can all be tied together in a public event at the end of the project.
Again, we need feedback, ASAP.  This is due this weekend as a concept map!
Thanks!
Meg
