Kris Hupp, from Cornell School District in Pittsburgh, PA, USA, developed a program to engage his students with others around the world in sustained, deep dialogues about contemporary world issues. Kris’ work helped his students move almost effortlessly from passive conversation and knowledge exchange into action. This video, which helped Kris to win the Busting Boundaries award in the 2014 Digital Innovation in Learning Awards, shows how issues of common interest inspire students to take action in their local communities and connect those actions globally.
