Partnering Up with Other Educators

www.twice.cc Look for the Capspace link. This space is a repository for teachers who have projects to propose and are looking for a partner, or you can create an account and propose your own.
Mystery Skype - You don't have to have Skype to play the game, add your contact info to the list if you are looking for partners to play Mystery Skype with. Check this website to learn more about the game.
Social Media - if you are part of an active PLN, toss your project idea out and see if anyone can connect you up with someone who wants to participate.

Partnering with Experts

NASA - provides real scientists to do free web conferences for students
Library of Congress - want to have someone else teach your students how to use primary sources on the LOC website? Take advantage of the free opportunities to conference with a librarian.
Alaska Sea Life Center - A great aquarium but pretty remote. They do outreach by teaching great classes by video. You can watch the animals swim by behind the presenter. Most of these cost money but much cheaper than a field trip.
Royal Botanical Gardens Ontario - If you are teaching anything about plants, this lady knows her stuff. Not free but great classes on a variety of topics. They are able to show you real plants from the gardens as they are demonstrating.
Internet K20 Initiative - I'm just learning more about this one but they have an number of live web events during the year. Take a look at their site and let me know if you give anything a try.
