Multicultural Transformation in the Classroom:
Interaction

Interactive teaching and learning is not about interacting with software. It is about interacting with OTHER PEOPLE. The Web can transcend other educational media in interactive potential because it can actually facilitate interaction among people across borders and boundaries. This should not replace interaction within the classroom, but it can expand interactive opportunities by connecting you or your students with people to whom you may previously have had no access.

There are several "types" of interactive opportunities on the Web that can contribute to your multicultural curriculum transformation:

Interaction with First Person Sources
