Facebook Update - Change the Margins in Brazil
I'm testing out a new blogging app on Facebook that's supposed to cross-post to a bunch of places, including twitter, my blog and my Facebook Newsfeed...we'll see how it goes.
Very cool news to report...a friend of mine is a teacher in Sao Paolo, Brazil and is using the Margins campaign as a teaching tool for her students. She had them prep questions for me and yesterday morning we did a Skype chat. Their English was great, and questions ranged from how I got the idea to how I thought they could implement it in their school. The only embarrassing thing is that they projected the video chat onto a very large screen so all the students could watch.
For the next month, they'll be doing a variety of activities surrounding Margins. I never realized my campaign could be used as a math lesson! I'm supposed to catch up with them in several weeks to find out how things are going. Hoping to learn a few Portuguese words by then to impress them with, as their English was fantastic.
