=Project Fracture is a global blogging project designed to help students from around the world discuss and learn about the various internal struggles in their countries. The central topic is "civil war" but it does not have to be taken completely literally. Ideological disputes or any issue that divides people inside their own borders are topics worth exploring.=

Timeline:
__** October- **__ Students write a blog post that revolves around some aspect of the civil war in their country. Ideas, tone and structure can vary. Creativity is strongly encouraged. Video, pictures and any other tools are welcome additions to the project. The only real rule is that everything must be housed inside a blog post so that other students can engage and discuss the post over the following weeks.

__** November- **__ Students add links to their blog posts. Students read posts from other students and comment with purpose.

While the initial blog post is important, the real value in this project is the discussion that follows in the comment section. The goal of the blog post should be to inform but also start a conversation with students from other countries.

Process:
Students are free to use any blogging platform they like (wordpress, blogger, etc.) and they can then add their links to this wiki. Links to their blog posts should be categorized by country. Each new country can add their own page that other students can then access to read and start the discussion.
