Re: What would you do with a one year sabbatical?

I'd sail around the Med for a year on our 34 foot boat with our two kids
along (ages 10 and 12).

The goal would be to "boat school" the kids using a combination of online
resources and networked authorities, at the same time as creating in-depth
learning experiences based on the countries and cities we would visit, with
a focus on history and nature (not to mention the physics and mathematics of
modern seafaring).

In additional to reporting back on the learning and teaching experiences on
our small craft, I'd also like to visit local schools, to discover how
technology is playing a role in schools in other cultures.

Sound good? Send your donations to www.... :)
