1. Participation Requirements

Q1. My school has one computer with online access. The lab is scheduled to go online this year. Could I participate with only one computer online?
A1. If you can work around the limitations, there shouldn't be a problem. You can print out the messages in your team's discussion forum and post them on a classroom bulletin board. Your students can use other computers to do the work, then transfer all the files to the computer connected to the Net. However, if there's a possibility you might temporarily lose access later this year while the lab is being set up, then that would be a problem.

Q2. Are only classrooms allowed to participate?
A2. Any kind of adult-supervised group of students can participate. There is no minimum or maximum number of students per group. Also, individual teachers may join a Teachers Club, exclusive to adults who want to meet fellow teachers and become familiar with Internet projects before undertaking one with their students.

Q3. I would like to work with our keypal (pen pal) schools. Can I partner with them and how do we apply?
A3. Yes, you can partner with them. Each school must still individually register with the GVC, and then you can create a new Clubhouse group. Please note on your application the name of the school with which you would like to partner.
