The Global Virtual Classroom will be using the conference forum facilities provided by Nicenet.org. Nicenet's Internet Classroom Assistant (ICA) provides a safe, convenient, feature-filled environment for classroom communication and collaboration. It offers not only threaded discussion, but also the ability to share web links and documents for both GVC Contest Teams and GVC Clubhouses, as well as for the GVC "Teacher's Lounge" and "Tech Support" forums.

You may visit a demo of the Nicenet facility set up by the Global Virtual Classroom Project by clicking on the link below. But before you do, please note the following username and password...

You'll need them when the link takes you to Nicenet's log-in page. Entering the gvcdemo username and g1v2c3 password will allow you to explore Nicenet's ICA capabilities. Just be sure to log out of Nicenet and hit your back button enough to come back here when you're finished.
