Yes, you heard correctly, the shades project lives on. Thanks to
the generosity and collaboration of some great folks at
Collaborize Classroom we will be introducing the #collaboreyes
project formerly known as #googleshades. The goal of the project
will remain the same in that we want to see the world through
the eyes of the kids living in it. The shades or sunglasses will
be our “prop” as well and we are working on finalizing what they
will look like. As this appears to be a reality now, I have
attempted to formalize the goal and outcomes of this project a
bit more. Goal: Connect kids around the world through the power
of storytelling and images. Task: Send one pair of #collaboreyes
shades to a willing classroom. Teacher sends home shades with a
student to take a picture in a significant or unique place. The
picture should include not only the place but also the student
wearing their #collaboreyes shades. Student returns with picture
and writes a short paragraph about their location and why they
chose it. Pi
