Skype is a great way to stay connected with people. I use it pretty regularly now as a way to keep in touch with friends, but have never integrated into the classroom. It would be a great way for students to demonstrate learning or for teachers to share lessons and ideas with other teachers. It would be really great to be able to connect the students accross the state, country, or even world. Wouldn't it be awesome if they could see or chat with a student over in China?
Jing would be great because it can be pre-recorded and then sent off. A teacher could record a lesson and then send it to another teacher across the world, or vice versa. Haven't we come such a long way from just normal phone conversations?
