Day 6 3662819
Today, we skyped with 5th grade students across the country on the computer. They had questions to ask us about using blogger or social network system and writing an autobiography. We used ISTE standard 3C communicate relevant information and ideas effectively to students, parents, and peers using a variety of digital-age media and formats. Video conferences are very useful and could help any classroom out from k-6 all the way to college. If a student catches a serious illness that keeps him/her out of class, it is hard for them to get help with their home work. Using a system like Skype, you can help them with question that they may have but cannot ask in class because of their illness. You can also communicate better with other teachers or parents. It would able you to talk to your substitute if you are ill as a teacher. It makes everything possible and communication more affective.
