I am so psyched to have the Hybrid Classroom mentioned on the Microsoft Partners in Learning Korea website. This is an short intro and invite for Microsoft Innovative Korean Teachers to come check us out. I really hope take part in some really interesting cross cultural conversations and collaborations with East Asian teachers. How are they integrating technology and real life assessments in their curriculum? What issues are Korean teachers having with technology? What are some innovative things they are doing to inspire their students?

    @Mary, Totally! I really hope that language does not become a barrier. I am told many Korean teachers will feel very shy about using their English and might not participate. Despite its size, S. Korea is the 13th largest economy in the world and technology there seems light years away from what we have here in the US. But how realistic is the use of all this stuff in Korean schools? Are teachers there having similar issues integrating the magic of technology with the realities of education policy, universal access, student scores and teacher buy in? Better yet, are their students really benefiting from the technology or is all this a distraction to learning?
