Description

Your first official global collaboration assignment is to create an introductory post in your Topic Group's discussion forum. Included in your post will be an introduction of yourselves, your school, your topic, something you look forward to learning by working with your global peers, a brief initial summary of the class's survey results, and the raw data collected from your class.

You will then gather the data from the other classes participating in the project. When communicating with other groups, be sure to use appropriate academic language and accountable talk strategies.
