Debate of 2008" project, an exploration and discussion of issues and
candidates surrounding the 2008 presidential election. The project
represents a wonderful opportunity for students to connect with other
students around the country in a private online social network to
share information and ideas related to the 2008 presidential election.
Participating students research campaign issues, lead and contribute
to online discussion, participate in online polls, and contribute
resources to our wiki.
The project officially begins September 22, though classes may join at
a later date. Students from the Noble & Greenough School in
Massachusetts and the Girls Preparatory School in Tennessee have
already contributed to the project and educators from Hawaii,
Louisiana, Missouri, and New Hampshire have recently joined our
network.

If your class would like to participate please contact me. Access to
our online social network and permission to edit our wiki is
restricted to participating students and teachers.
best,
Tom
