Title: Arounder Online Magazine: Virtual City Tours
Body: From http://www.arounder.com/about.html AROUNDER gives travelers a vivid sense of what a city has to offer: historical cathedrals and works of art, museums featuring famous artists, local cafes and stores, breathtaking mountain-top views, quiet parks and gardens. Each issue contains a series of panoramas in a selection of formats - QuickTime Full Screen, QuickTime Medium and Java - so that both dial-up and high-speed Internet users can participate. Navigation is easy with Google maps of the city and surrounding area. The nucleus of the AROUNDER concept is the virtual tour - fullscreen 360-degree photographic panoramas, which enable the user to pan left, right, up and down. Users can click on hotspots within each panorama to move on to another pano, and thus take a virtual tour. Each panorama within the series highlights a historic point of interest within that city - such as cathedrals or old town squares, and places where a tourist would visit if physically in that city - museums, parks, local marketplaces and seaside promenades. Arounder currently features major European cities and a handful of US cities. It is available at http://www.arounder.com .

Title: Cultural Correspondents: International Students and K-8 Students Web Conferencing
Body: From http://nciwconnections.wikispaces.com/Cultural+Correspondents Cultural Correspondents is an innovative way of partnering university study abroad students with K-8 classrooms in North Carolina. Using 21st century communications technologies, university study abroad students are paired with K-8 classrooms to present lessons on their host country, culture, and experiences. The teachings that study abroad students and their classroom teacher design and share with K-8 classrooms are aligned to classroom concepts and curriculum, thus fulfilling State Board of Education mandates. This type of partnership is mutually beneficial because it allows study abroad students to gain valuable service-learning experience, while also allowing K-8 students to learn firsthand about another country’s cultures, climate, economy, geography, etc. Correspondent teachings are supervised and facilitated by the classroom teacher as additional parts of their lessons. Each participant receives training in web conferencing, a technology that combines familiar computer applications in a virtual online classroom designed for real-time communication and collaboration. All of these aspects combined help ensure the K-8 student has a complete education, well-rounded by an introduction to international education that can help prepare them to become 21st century graduates.

Title: Book: Content and Language Integrated Learning: Cultural Diversity
Body: From http://www.peterlang.com/Index.cfm?vLang=E&vSiteID=4&vSiteName=BookDetail.cfm&VID=11818 Content and Language Integrated Learning: Cultural Diversity Editor: María Luisa Carrió-Pastor Publisher: Peter Lang Publishing Group Summary: The adoption of Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) in Higher Education teaching has been widespread. This learning strategy has developed the need to learn foreign languages and to communicate with people with different cultural backgrounds. Culture learning should be part of language and content teaching as Higher Education involves language skills, topic comprehension and sociological capabilities. Teachers explore new teaching strategies which imply diverse goals and focus on different cultural backgrounds. The contributions of this book comment the multicultural awareness of the students involved in learning another language and the facts implied in teaching in a multicultural environment.
