Monday evening I was trained to represent the GLOBE program at our school. The Global Learning and Observations to Benefit the Environment (GLOBE) workshop was given at the Palmyra Cove Education Center.
This program was started in 1995 by Vice President Al Gore.
GLOBE’s implementation of internet came at a time when using this method of communication was in its infancy.
After 17 years, the program promotes international collaboration between teachers of all age level students.
This map shows the location of participating schools throughout the world.

Our course facilitator suggested schools in Finland or Czech Republic because they seem to be very active in the program.
In addition you can view how many times the individual school has posted data to the site.
This provides an idea of the level of participation in the school.
I will update you on the progress of my implementation of the program.
Let me know if you have any questions.
It would be cool to see some other teachers from our course work with the globe program.
