Subject: Request for Volunteers to develop Teching Packs
Reply-To:
Dear Recipient,
I am the Director of a new Bird site that is being professionally
developed at
http://www.mybirdlists.com and will be launched before September 2007.
Part of this site is dedicated to our INDO project (International
Development of
Ornithology). The first activity there is to develop teaching
packs, which can
be downloaded by anyone from our site for free. Although these
will be available
to everyone, these are targeted at schoolteachers and particularly
in developing
countries.
We would like to hear from anyone with teaching and educational
experience, who
would like to volunteer to help with the development of these packs.
We are going to try and develop primary (5-11 year-old) and
secondary (11-16
year-old) versions in as many languages as we can manage, so anyone
with
non-English language skills (particularly Spanish, Arabic and Asian
languages)
would be very welcome. We also plan that there will be local
versions, which use
common local birds as examples, covering for example, North
America, South
America, Europe and Asia; and possibly other areas as well if we
can get enough
developers.
If you are interested in volunteering for this then please reply to
this email to
and let me know your skills and languages.
I look forward to hearing from you,
David Boyd
Director mybirdlists.com
