Global Cooperation Comparison

One of the sites I looked at and liked was www.epals.com. This site allows you to sign up to become a member for free, which is always good. Also, it's managed by other teachers and administrators to ensure the safety of students. It's easy to find people from anywhere around the world to connect with and set up communication between students. As a user, I can monitor, delete, or even edit messages my students send or receive. I can also block some messages if needed.

Another site I looked at was Kidlink.com. This seemed a little bit harder to navigate. The website was set up differently than I'm used to. The idea of this site was different from epals. Here, students can post their artwork, pictures and more. They can also connect with other kids based on their common interests, like what they want to be when they grow up. Students can pick and choose what they want to look at and what they want to learn about. There is a great variety to pick from as well.
