Teams or Committees: An important part of the
learning experience is for your team to come to a consensus in
choosing an appropriate project topic. Many school sites have a
technology team or school site advisory committee (comprised of
teachers, curricular planners, librarians, parents, community
members, etc.) that could take the lead in introducing and
organizing the school's Doors to Diplomacy program. Be sure to
include the appropriate school administrator
