Social Action with Technology Listserv
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/socialaction_with_technology

Last June, the Pennsylvania Service-Learning Alliance (PSLA) and the School District of Philadelphia sponsored a Youth Summit on Technology and Service-Learning. After the summit, many teachers became excited about the potential of technology as a tool for social action. A group of these teachers have been meeting to share resources and talk about potential classroom projects for the upcoming school year.

An email mailing list (listserv) has been created to support this conversation among teachers. The listserv focuses on the themes of social action learning and technology literacy. Teachers are using the list to discuss ideas for classroom projects, as well as to explore other topics.

Educators throughout Pennsylvania are welcome to join in on the discussion. Individuals from the PSLA and the Graduate School of Education at the University of Pennsylvania are also members of this email community. When possible, these representatives will work with schools to support project activities.

You will need to sign up for a free yahoo id to join this group, but you can set the preferences to use your own e-mail. Visit http://groups.yahoo.com/group/socialaction_with_technology for more information.

We hope you'll join us!
