Global Teenager Project
The Global Teenager Project (GTP) fulfils a need, which schools around the world have for creating an international learning environment and, at the same time, integrating ICT into their curricula. The aims of the Global Teenager Project are twofold: to improve the quality of secondary school education by introducing schools to new applications of ICT; and to promote inter-cultural awareness and sensitivity by opening up regular, lively classroom debates in a safe, structured environment, comprising secondary school pupils from all over the world. The debates during the main activity, Learning Circles, take place on a Virtual Campus, which can be likened to a university campus, only in cyberspace. In this way, the GTP is revolutionizing classroom teaching.
Burkina Faso is one of the African countries participating in the Global Teenager Project.
