8th Grade Collaborative Study

This investigation of Phineas Gage has been prompted by the 8th grade reading book in the Pathways Reading Program adopted by the schools of the Texas and Georgia Cumberland Conferences. It is a collaborative effort between two 8th grade classes in Dallas, Texas, and Atlanta, Georgia.

The collaboration and research between the two groups of students relies heavily on technology for communication, fact finding, composition, and publication.
