IHEC Blog will Participate in Blog Action Day 2009 Focusing on Climate Change

Tuesday, September 29, 2009

October 15th will be Blog Action Day 2009 and International Higher Education Consulting Blog (http://ihec-djc.blogspot.com/) as registered and will participate. The theme of Blog Action Day 2009 is Climate Change and my plan is to highlight the various efforts and resources in the field of international education that focus on climate change. Examples of what might be included in my Blog Action Day post are:

- Social networks/listservs for international educators that focus on sustainability and greening the field

- study abroad/exchange programs with significant course content focused on climate change/the environment

- Standards of Good Practice

- Study Abroad Programs/Providers mission statements and/or efforts in this area

In order to produce a good resource I need your assistance! Please take a moment to leave a comment at http://ihec-djc.blogspot.com/2009/09/ihec-blog-will-participate-in-blog.html with information (preferably links) on what your study abroad program, institution, or organization is doing in this area and I will gladly list and provide a link. Additionally, if you know of any resources I should list please leave a brief description with any links in the comment section.

Additionally, you can follow Blog Action Day on Twitter at http://twitter.com/blogactionday.

Thank you in advance for any suggestions you have.

International Education Blogs ~ A New Blogging Project by David Comp

Wednesday, March 04, 2009

International Education Blogs is a new blogging project I started two weeks ago as an effort to bring all of the blogs on the web that touch on international education issues into one central location. Essentially it will be a blog roll with a few postings. Please bear with me as I learn the technology. This initial launch will have two different blog lists for you to review.

The first list of blogs will be those of people who are blogging on the field/state of international education and related matters.

The second list of blogs will be those of students and others who are currently blogging from a foreign location.

If you have any ideas for blogs to be added to International Education Blogs please send me an e-mail at: international.ed.consulting@gmail.com

You can access International Education Blogs here: http://internationaleducationblogs.blogspot.com/
