Are you Skyping? If not, please consider the usefulness of this synchronous collaboration tool. Think of Skype as instant messaging using audio instead of text and then add a plethora of other useful features that make collaboration among school administrators, professional teams, or even international colleagues easy and instantaneous. The session is designed for integrators, coordinators, administrators, and other leaders in the area of professional development and technology. Participants leave this session with knowledge of several different Skype connections (computer-computer, computer-phone, and skypecasts) and a variety of ideas and models for successful integration of Skype into the educational community. Using Skype in conjunction with podcasting and portals is also highlighted. |
