- Classes from around the world are matched up, write their This I Believe Essays/record the podcasts, upload them to a wiki, and then students peer edit/respond to essays in the paired class. Read much more on Anne's post or visit the wiki to learn more.
- If your class(es) are interested in participating, fill out this Google Form. Then we'll get back to you reasonably soon.
- If you're interested in participating as an adult and posting your essay/podcast, go to this page and knock yourself out. (Note: concussions are very serious, please don't actually knock yourself out.)

This such a great idea!!! I'm a student in Dr. Strange's EDM 310 class at the University of South Alabama. I do believe I will participate in this project.
