3. Find Projects and Partners
The project registries and mailing lists below, in addition to the Example Networked Project sites we've already visited, will help you find projects appropriate for your students.
Project Registries maintain current announcements of projects submitted by other teachers and many commercial scale projects.
Mailing Lists send project announcements directly to you via email, so you don't need to check in with your Web browser.
- Global Schoolhouse™ Project Registry
- http://www.gsn.org/pr/
You'll find a large selection of current projects from a variety of sources, but mainly from other teachers. You can also make your own project and post it here. (See also Global Schoolhouse™ Visitor Guide). Also check out GSN's Hilites mailing list described below.

Electronic mailing lists are an efficient way to keep up-to-date with new projects since announcements are delivered directly to your email box. When you send email to a mailing list, all list subscribers receive a copy of your message via email. Mailing lists allow you to follow discussions, receive information related to specific topics, and communicate with your peers around the world.
- Hilites
- The Hilites
list, moderated by The Global Schoolhouse™, is
the oldest (started on FrEdMail in 1987... with web archives going back to 1995 ) and most reliable mailing list on the
Internet for high-quality networked
projects. Though other educational mailing lists may also announce projects, we
recommend that you begin your listserv experience with Hilites. The list
is professionally moderated and all projects are screened for credibility.
To subscribe to the Hilites mailing list, fill out the form below and hit the "Subscribe" button (requires a live Internet connection
). You will receive confirmation within 24
hours via email. If your Web browser does not support forms, send email to Majordomo@gsn.org with the line "subscribe
hilites" as the first line in the body of the message. - IECC
