About SEED ID: 10899
The Schlumberger Excellence in Educational Development (SEED) program connects disadvantaged school children in developing countries to the Internet, shares the real world of science through a multilingual online science center, and facilitates collaborative projects among school children around the world. The program offers young people a tangible opportunity to participate in the economic and social advantages afforded by access to new knowledge and technologies. Our vision is to build a learning community that dissolves barriers and creates connections. 

SEED was created in 1998 in response to information and communication technology needs in developing countries, to the challenges of science education around the world, and in recognition of the resources Schlumberger could provide to help address these challenges. 

SEED draws upon three particular Schlumberger resources: people who are willing and motivated to share their knowledge and time, expertise in networking technology and a range of science disciplines, and a long-standing presence in over 100 countries.

SEED Collaborative Projects is looking for schools around the globe to team with American schools. Now that we have introduced Collaborative Projects in the US there is overwhelming interest. I now need schools and students groups around the globe to match with the US schools. If you know of an interested classroom please let me know. If you are interested in volunteering with collaborative projects, it will not take too much time and I will coach you through the entire process. SEED is waiting on you to make things happen for children around the world.
