We are completing an e-learning course at Massey University, New Zealand. This wiki is a collaborative effort as part of our study of Global Perspectives in eLearning. As contributors of this wiki we have specific expertise in teaching at primary, middle and secondary level and seek to provide a resource that is useful to scaffold e-learning for global citizenship specific to these areas.

**Lorraine** I have been fortunate to have taught Geography and Mathematics at Secondary School level in different countries including USA, New Zealand, United Arab Emirates, Seychelles and Papua New Guinea. I believe that learning should be interest driven, collaborative, and utilise the technological tools that we have available today. Our world is becoming multi-cultural both physically and virtually making learning enriching at any age.

**Shaun** I am a primary school teacher, currently teaching Year 8's in a low decile Auckland school. As an internet geek I have always had a passion for using ICT to engage students with tools that already part of their lives. I believe e-learning can also help focus student learning and prepare them in becoming responsible digital citizens and life-long learners.

**Amber** I am a primary school teacher, currently teaching Year 0/1 students in a small semi-rural New Zealand school.
