"The project of the migrating birds, helps us to learn about countries, continents, islands, etc... We learn a lot about birds, their food, their long migrating ways, the places they visit on their way and more. I think that the computer age is a very important and very interesting age - it helps people at school, at work and it does amazing things in our daily life that shows us how far can technology get. The school of tomorrow will mostly include computers and technology machines that will help us study faster and easier."

" I work in the: "Migrating Birds Know No Boundaries" project. In the project we learn and study about the paths that the birds go when they migrate, about the reason that they migrate, about the countries they go through and the risks of the migration. The computer age has opened a window to a new way of learning a subject such as ours.The computers makes the learning much more interesting and fun. I think that the school of tomorrow would be based on computers and learning from the internet. The only thing that I hope that will stay the same is learning in a class with friends and different people."

"I think that in the future, pupils won't go to school, they will study at home using the computer, get their homework from the net and send it back to the teacher by e-mail. Now, most of the pupils in our age (in the developed countries), use computers to do their homework, to play and to do what they want. We are learning the third year the project: "Migrating Birds Know No Boundaries". This is a very interesting project - we learn about birds, the damages that they causes and a lot more interesting things."

3. Alex Sandomirski, Israel, 15 years old


"In my opinion, there will be no such thing like "The School Of Tomorrow". I think that all the students will be taking virtual lessons through the internet, they will be able to study whatever they think is necessary for their future and there will be no age limit. The only time that the student will have to come somewhere will be the final exam (to make sure he actually knows the meterial). Plus, there will be many special projects, which will give the student a special diploma (after he completes the project succesfuly) that can seriously help on a job application."

4. Anton Elport, Israel, 14 years old


"In the future there won’t be any schools. All the information that we were getting from school will transfer straightly into our minds, with a help of a computer of course. The information will transfer gradually, not all in one time, so that we can get a life experience and to learn how to use the information in the best way. Everyone will be smart, rich and life will be much easier, because everyone will develop more and more new things. In our life we are living for to reasons: money and love. So here is the problem: if we will have no school and of course, all the things will do from home in the Internet, we won’t get in touch with people, so how can we find real love? I think that’ is the problems with the computer generation-we are loosing touch with people and doing everything through our computer in the Internet. Now it is minor problem but I think that in the future it will get much bigger."

The school of tomorrow... In my eyes, it won't even physically exist. The kids of the future will simply choose certain courses to study- ones that intrest them- and download articles and learning materials from a vast World Wide Web. They will then fulfill given assignments and submit them to authorities who will grade them every semester. The kids of the future will leave their house only for activities such as sport and exercise. The rest will be undertaken from the household- social activities will be conducted in various chat rooms and all information will be instantly available at ones fingertips through the computer. Classmates of the virtual school might only see each other through video phones and the like, but not in person. This is my view of the future-  In our school, we are using computers more and more. An example of this is our work in the "Migrating Birds Know No Boundaries" project where we search for almost all our reference material and can participate in many forums and discussions over the Internet.

The school of tomorrow, I think it A Hi-Tec school, everything there is be in computer control, the security, the students will work in school only in computer. The computer age is the best age, computer: man’s best friend, he can help you to find information, you can play with him, in computer you can sand mail, “E-Mail”: electronic mail, you sand a letter to your friend at the moment and he already get it in 1 second, I mean it. We are in kramim school work’s on project call “Migrating Birds”, the project works on the migrating birds on Israel, the good & the bed in the migrating birds in Israel.
