Description

Based on an action research project by Julia Ipgrave at a Leicester primary school, this book shows how email exchange between schools in different areas can provide a forum for interfaith and intercultural encounters.

Building E-bridges sets out a model of interfaith dialogue by email for teachers to adapt for the needs of their own schools. It lays down the principles that have guided existing work in the field, offers advice on the practicalities of setting up email partnerships and suggests a variety of ways in which the links might be developed further.

Includes case studies of successful projects, practical advice on technical and communication issues, and frameworks for planning, assessment and evaluation.
