k12.*


A collection of conferences devoted to K-12 educational curriculum, language exchanges with native speakers, and classroom-to-classroom projects designed by teachers. The conferences are privately distributed among FidoNet-compatible electronic bulletin board systems in Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, and North America, as well as available from uunet.uu.net as Usenet newsgroups in the hierarchy k12.*

Classroom-to-classroom projects are featured in the K12 "Channels" which are periodically reassigned based on usage and appropriate project length. They comprise the k12.sys hierarchy.

Forums for casual conversation among students are divided by grade level in the k12.chat hierarchy; there is also an area for teachers to exchange general ideas about using telecommunications in education.
