Flat Classroom® Conference Qatar - a life-changing event for all

The first Flat Classroom® Conference held in Doha, Qatar
pioneered the Project Based Learning format as described in our book, ‘Flattening
Classrooms, Engaging Minds’, Chapter 11. It harnessed the power of Web 2.0
tools to empower students and educators to design the future of global learning
in a face-to-face format in Doha, Qatar but with virtual participation around
the world from other schools and experts. This
conference was made possible as a result of the Flat Classroom® projects
founded in October 2006 by Julie Lindsay (Australia, Bangladesh, Qatar, China)
and Vicki Davis (Camilla, GA USA) and funded by HSBC Bank, ictQatar and Qatar
Academy.
