iEARN has been linking
schools internationally since 1988. In that year, the
Copen Family Foundation, under the leadership of Peter Copen, linked
12 schools in Moscow with 12 schools in New York State in a pioneering
demonstration that education can be enhanced and the quality of
life on the planet improved if young people are given the opportunity
to use telecommunications technologies to collaborate on projects.
Based on the successful
project work completed between 1990 and 1994, iEARN opened its network
worldwide and is now active in more than 25,000 schools
and youth organizations in over 120 countries. Over 1,000,000 students
each day are engaged in collaborative project work.
