Julie Lindsay is an IT Director, currently working at Qatar Academy, soon to be at Beijing International School. She will be joining us at noon via Skype to talk about how she has developed an amazing project-based learning opportunity for students around the globe based on the Horizon Project, The World is Flat and Grown Up Digital. Julie and Vicki Davis (her partner in these projects) have recently completed the first ever Flat Classroom Conference and have received multiple awards for their ground-breaking work.
