Students are global citizens hungry for connection to other students as evidenced by the use of social media by youth. Bringing high-interest exchange experiences that are structured and facilitated helps build awareness, create connection, bring content areas to life and make learning more relevant. Plus, virtual exchanges are FUN!

Inspired Classroom offers 2 types of virtual exchanges. Both exchanges come with:

Resources included within the Virtual Exchange Framework housed on interactive platform.

1. Background on Exchanges

2. Scenario video

3. Library with Learner Specific Resources

4. Mentor Library with Facilitation Guide

5. Organized Step-by-Step Process for Learners

Non-Facilitated Exchanges are intended for two ‘buddy classroom’ teachers to schedule and facilitate learning experiences in collaboration with their students. One organizational meeting at the beginning of exchange is hosted by our expert facilitators and ideas and quarterly ‘office hours’ are available. Teachers may meet with their buddy class as often as desired. COST—$500 annual subscription/for two ‘buddy classrooms”.

Facilitated Exchanges are highly recommended for those teachers wishing to connect to classrooms in different countries. Our expert facilitators will help find buddy classes, take care of organization and scheduling and will actively walk your students through 3-4 collaborative virtual sessions with definitive learning outcomes. COST—$1800 for two ‘buddy classrooms’ for 3-4 hour long meet-ups.
