‘ROCK OUR WORLD’ DEMONSTRATES THE POWER OF GLOBAL TEACHING

First-Ever Innovative Webcam Teaching Project on Local PBS Station
‘Rock Our World’ Debuts December 3rd on KOCE

Where will the new global electronic age citizens come from? Orange County!

KOCE-TV, PBS from Orange County and Imperial Elementary School in Orange, demonstrate the power of one teacher and one classroom to encourage growth and learning by reaching across the globe to connect five continents, five different time zones, and six countries via Internet-based video.

On Friday, December 3, from 1:00-2:00 p.m., ROCK OUR WORLD premieres around the world. KOCE viewers will see the months-in-the-making culmination of a collaborative international learning project of music, video and sharing, LIVE, via computer webcams and Apple iSights. American students in Carol Anne McGuire’s class at Imperial Elementary will join other students in New Zealand, Peru, Belgium, Japan and Australia for a unique learning experience that records how the students work together, share surprises, and, for the first time, see the results of their collaborative project.

ROCK OUR WORLD is being assembled in Canada via the Internet for this premiere presentation to the world via KOCE-TV. For more information contact Hall Davidson, Director of Education Services at KOCE.
