FLIPGRID
Students record videos with their webcams (to reply to prompts from teacher)
If a student does not want to appear on camera, or the Flipgrid topic does not have a free-form response then students can use the option to upload a video rather than record through Flipgrid.
Make a screencast video by combining screencast videos with regular webcam video clips in Flipgrid using Flipgrid's screen recording tool!

UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future. At its heart are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which are an urgent call for action by all countries - developed and developing - in a global partnership. They recognise that ending poverty and other deprivations must go hand-in-hand with strategies that improve health and education, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth – all while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and forests.
Friends for Sustainability (projects for children aged 10-15 years)
The aim of this project is to explore global issues and to foster meaningful discussion and sharing between students. Outcomes will include student-driven solutions shared through creative use of technology.
