| Hot Spots |
Through iEarn website, an International Education and Resource Network, we got the chance to meet Ms. Edna Pythan, the Global Connections Liaison Highland Park ISD in Dallas, TX, USA, who has an interesting project about "Community Hot Spots". The partnership includes 12 classess from Dallas, TX, USA, four from Madrid, Spain, and our school.
Students took pictures of their favorite spots in their community and created a "Hot Spots" project on Voicethread. Then, they uploaded these pictures on Voicethread and talked about why these places are their "hot spots" and why they are an important part of their community. Then teachers will create a Wiki to host a discussion about their community and share that wiki with partner schools so they too can post Voicethreads, as well as view and comment on student videos.

Outcomes:
- Students will identify their favorite places in their own community and investigate why it is an important part of their community.
- Students create a Voicethread that clearly communicates their favorite places in their community and why it is an important part of their community.
- Students will analyze voice threads of other students to find similarities and differences in that particular community and their own.
