Subject: [WWWEDU] Forum to feature "Beyond the Fire"

"Beyond the Fire" (http://www.beyondthefire.net
a new web site which highlights the
stories of teenaged refugees from seven worldwide war zones, will be the
focus of the next TAPPED IN Social Studies forum, set for 8 p.m. Eastern (5
p.m. Pacific) April 28.  TAPPED IN's web address is http://www.tappedin.org

Joining us for this forum session will be Sesh Kannan, who created and
produced the site.  Once the "Beyond the Fire" site is fully operational, it
will contain several forms of interactivity, companion lessons, and an
online learning and community forum.


As always, TAPPED IN help desk personnel will be on hand to assist new
users.  It's suggested that new users log in at least 10 minutes prior to
the session for assistance.

  Anyone wanting more information or with questions about the session are
invited to e-mail Michael Hutchison off-list.
