Jensen's E-Mail Magic program united third grade students with senior citizens in their city. By sharing e-mail messages with seniors at the local senior center, students learned valuable computer and reading and writing skills while learning about people with whom they would normally not interact. The program also provided the seniors with a link to people outside of the center and allowed them to share lifetimes of experiences with the students.
