The Global Education Conference (See Information Below) was held online recently, and I gained so many valuable contacts, projects, links, and ideas that I can hardly fit them into a single post. I will be adding information, links and other statistics in the weeks ahead! What a fantastic experience! I hope to attend, moderate, volunteer, and present at the conference next year!
They used ALLUDO Learning Modules as a Post-Conference Learning Tool! See the pictures at the bottom of the post to check out the Project-Based Learning that took place by all attendees!

The Global Education Conference Mission
The Global Education Conference is a collaborative, world-wide community initiative involving students, educators, and organizations at all levels. It is designed to significantly increase opportunities for building education-related connections around the globe while supporting cultural awareness, recognition of diversity, and educational access for all.
The conference seeks to present ideas, examples, and projects related to connecting educators and classrooms with a strong emphasis on promoting global awareness, fostering global competency, and inspiring action towards solving real–world problems. Through this event, it is our hope that attendees will challenge themselves and others to become more active citizens of the world. Let us learn, question, create, and engage in meaningful, authentic opportunities within a global context!
About This Community
Please join students, parents, teachers, administrators, higher education professionals, non-profit organizations, consultants and businesses here to find common interests related to global education. See our crowd sourced Global Education Declaration. Our purpose is to bring people together in order to build the professional relationships necessary for effective collaboration related to global education topics.
Originally named the Global Education Collaborative, this network has been re-named the Global Education Conference Network to reflect consistency with the title of the conference. Started in 2007 by Lucy Gray, our community now includes over 22,000 members interested in global collaboration.
