Full Project Description:
Our students are interested in "Databasing Their Way Across the Nation" as well as the globe. We have created a list of survey questions geared towards 5th grade students. We are looking for participants to complete these surveys and possible share images and video about themselves and their school community. The information collected will be placed in a database, transferred to a variety of formats and shared with all participants. The ultimate project will be a video conferencing session with the states that are most and least alike.
