If you have an opportunity to listen to the rest of the Flat Classroom discussion, you may understand the power of these types global collaborative projects and the valuable experience for our students. There are also two links in the Bb site for more information about the Flat Classroom project.
I also wanted to add that there are varying degrees, or phases, of "flatness" and you do not need to begin globally. I would be in awe if you did start that big! I personally began just by connecting kids in my different classes. Sometimes that is effective enough for the goal you have in mind.
