MORE THINGS #3

I downloaded Skype successfully. I've used Skype at home to talk to my niece in China! It is a great tool. Adding the video web cam component could really take it to new heights. Many teachers use the Activboard now so the screen picture would be great in a classsroom. I liked the idea of students using it when they are absent to get a missed lesson, getting after-school tutorials online (can it conference-call?). Also a theater class could perform a scene to a play and share it with parents or another school. Lots and lots of great uses! I took lots of classes on tape (using VHS tapes in the olden days!)in college and I found it quite helpful.
