Our Life on the Border CyberFair project (www.lifeontheborder.com )is a successful example of project based learning. One hundred students from the Tech Center and 300 students enrolled in French classes researched their Franco American Culture and published their findings on the web.
International Schools CyberFair, now in its twelfth year, is an award-winning, authentic learning program used by schools and youth organizations around the world. Students conduct research about their local communities and then publish their findings on the World Wide Web. Recognition is given to schools for the best projects in each of eight categories: local leaders, businesses, community organizations, historical landmarks, environment, music, art, and local specialties.
This White House endorsed program encourages youth to become ambassadors for their own local communities by working collaboratively with community members and using technology tools to publish a Web site that displays what they have learned. The annual contest has involved more than one million students from 4,500 schools across 100 countries—and is considered the longest running international education cyber-event of its kind.
Competition judging also takes place online. Students evaluate each others projects by using a Web-based evaluation tool designed by Global SchoolNet. The top forty entries are reviewed by international judges, to determine the winners. Winners of International Schools CyberFair are announced each Spring at a event that is global in itself, with hundreds of schools participating via Internet.

A film by Rich Tola: This fictional documentary is about an edgy, East Coast hotshot real estate attorney turned modern-day yoga master, Bobby D’Angelo. Our spirited protagonist inspires students with his determination and his mottos: “survival-of-the-fittest” and “strong body, clear mind”. It’s also a story about letting go of the past and dealing with personal issues through the power of yoga.
