“This is our Time” heeft zich ontwikkeld van vrij gesloten e-mail project voor 2e Fase Voortgezet Onderwijs tot een flexibele multimediale leeromgeving voor intercultureel en internationale communicatieporjecten met een hoge mate van interactie voor diverse onderwijssectoren.
In de presentatie op NIOCC’99 wordt uit de doeken gedaan wat de belangrijkste eigenschappen en factoren zijn die “ Time” zo aantrekkelijk maken voor docenten en scholieren uit zoveel (>50) verschillende landen.
De rol van Informatietechnologie, met name de pragmatische toepassing van, staat daarbij centraal.
Verder wordt aandacht besteed aan de consequenties die concepten als“ Time “ hebben voor het opleiden van Leraren- en ICT- deskundigen in het onderwijsveld.
De dia-presentatie op deze CD-Rom schetst iets meer van de algemene achtergronden en doelstellingen van “This is our Time”.
Het concept “Time” is bedacht en ontwikkeld door SMC-Telematica Heerlen en wordt sinds 1995 jaarlijks uitgevoerd in opdracht van Unesco.

There was a lady named “Bright”
Who travelled much faster than light
She left home one day
In a relative way
And came back the previous day

Hola Time We are very pleased to be participating in the Time
Project this year and are looking forward to building links with more like minded youth from around the planet. Thank you
Time for this opportunity. Peru This was a terrific project unlike anything I
have ever experienced in my 10 years of teaching and something I am dying to do
again....hopefully dont have to wait 50 more years to do it again.

My pupils have worked hard to get in contact not only with there
twinning schools but also with more than 30 other schools,
sending their opinion of Human Rights, asking question about
others´opinions.
