Russia NC6:
North Carolina's Sixth Grades Go to Russia enables your students to be part of a virtual field trip/global research project that is built on curriculum integration.
North Carolina's Sixth Graders Go to Russia is an ambitious research project that examines the impact on student learning when curriculum integration is the teaching and learning approach used in the classroom. Classes log on as home-based research teams, receive weekly on-line postcards from Russia and send in questions about Russia that will form the basis of a university developed teaching unit on Russia. The questions will be answered by NC State researchers who will travel to Russia in February. Research data, interviews with Russian school children and pictures from Pskov, Russia, will arrive in classrooms as teachers and students are researching and learning about Russia. Students' final Russia projects and a discussion about the experience of using curriculum integration will be the main topics at a Global Connections Summit held in May at NC State University. |
