Global Classroom

We are a small business in Burlington that focuses on promoting the use of Moodle by providing it free. We also provide free training resources and other online professional development opportunities. Any teacher can register and start creating their own online classroom using Moodle by visiting http://globalclassroom.us. Students can also register to participate in their teachers' classrooms by visiting the same page.

New Initiatives:
In early 2008 we will start creating a library of free course modules for teachers to utilize in their own classrooms (the first course module is an AUP/Copyright/Internet Ethics course developed in conjunction with the GEOSS project).

Also, this year we are promoting a new initiative in Vermont to implement Moodle at 15-20 schools statewide using our system. The National eLearning Leadership Cohort will connect educators also implementing Moodle from several states in a collaborative, shared online experience. Global Classroom will share all of it's training resources and will facilitate discussions, live presentations and on-site training opportunities as participants work to implement Moodle (without the hassles of acquiring server space, configuring the platform and generally 'going it alone').

Interested individuals or schools can contact Joseph Thibault (cell: 802-578-7422, email: jthibault@globalclassroom.us) for more information.
