2002-2003 Connectivity Programs

In May of 2002, Project Harmony and Connected Minds entered into a mutually beneficial partnership. Connected Minds agreed to produce lesson plans for Project Harmony’s upcoming school connectivity programs, working with Armenia, Azerbaijan and the United States. Students were introduced to lesson plans involving the topics of:

::	Introduction & Interdependence
::	Images & Perception
::	Conflict & Conflic Resolution
::	Social Justice & Change for the Future

The 2002-2003 collaboration between Connected Minds and Project Harmony completed with resounding success, as students from sixty U.S. schools communicated regularly with students from sixty-nine Armenian and Azerbaijani schools. Additionally, Education World has rated the content of the program as “A+”, the highest possible rating.

In addition to curricula, Connected Minds is finishing the development of software that forms the backbone of the student’s communications.. Visit the In development section to read further about its progress.

2001-2002 Connectivity Pilot Programs

Connected Minds launched the 2002 pilot program by connecting students worldwide with great success. Volunteers from communities in Bulgaria, Canada, Japan, Romania, and the United States were recruited and trained to help facilitate the program in their local schools.

Through the evaluation process, Connected Minds realized measured benefit in the area of cultural curiosity to teachers and students. Teachers benefited from utilizing the comprehensive curriculum guide to present complex and sensitive cultural issues in their classrooms. Additionally, students demonstrated increased levels of global curiosity after completing the program.
