The UN Cyberschoolbus captures the growing potential of the Internet as an educational tool and provides an effective medium with which to disseminate information and resources about international affairs, as well as bring together diverse communities of students and educators from around the world. Within the Cyberschoolbus site there are a number of activities and projects that teach students about global issues in an interactive, engaging and fun way.
As is the nature of the Internet and technology in general, the Cyberschoolbus site is constantly evolving. Over the next few years the site will take on new directions and projects. Through increased collaboration with other organizations and UN agencies, the Cyberschoolbus will continue to provide students a forum for learning about the world in which they live.
