Our school had an interesting start to the school year, in that the H1N1 pandemic prompted city officials to close down all schools. As a ‘technology-rich’ institution, we decided to proceed with a program of providing distance learning for the first week.
Our director wrote up a review of his observations and community reactions for his blog, and the article was expanded on and reprinted in one of the professional journals for international educators. It provides an interesting ‘big picture’ view of some of the successes and challenges we experienced. It also gives anyone interested in teaching overseas an idea of the resources available. ISS is one of the big names in recruiting, as is Search, and the University of Northern Iowa‘s job fair gives an idea of the breadth of positions and countries available!
