iEARN - the International Education and Resource Network

The iEarn website introduces online projects from schools in more than 109 countries. The projects presented cover many areas: from science to maths, from environment to art. iEARN empowers teachers and young people to work together online using the Internet and other new communications technologies.

How can I participate in iEARN projects?
There are over 120 projects in iEARN all designed and facilitated by teachers and students to fit their curriculum and classroom needs and schedules. To join, participants select an online project and look at how they can integrate it into their classroom. With the project selected teachers and students enter online forum spaces to meet one another and get involved in ongoing projects with classrooms around the world who are working on the same project.
