TECH: Skype In The Classroom
Connecting teachers all around the word, Skype has officially launched their ‘Skype in the Classroom’ networks for educators. The platform lets teachers create a profile about themselves and the classes they teach and then connect with others. This allows them to have guest speakers without travel, take virtual field trips and partner lesson plans with other classrooms. One fifth-grade teacher in Missouri used Skype in the Classroom to find five partner classrooms for her ‘weather around the world’ project.
