I remember when you skyped me last year for a geography project for your students. I've talked about that endlessly as a great way to connect. This is even better! Such fun to see everyone, too. You share such possibilities for all of us.

As you said, so good to see an example of using the web for interaction, not just one-way delivery of "content" from teacher to learner. You've truly shown how this medium can be used to connect our learners with the outside world, rather than isolate them. Keep up the good work.

I hope to hear more about her students and their adventures. Thank you for including me. I also love what you did with the video.

We supposedly don't have enough bandwidth, but it seems like most other districts I read about do...I can't figure it out. Thank you for this post - I'm going to forward it on to the powers that be so they can have a clear visual of the kind of experience I want to happen in our schools! :) <abbr><em>Melanie Holtsmans last blog post..<a href="http://onceuponateacher.blogspot.com/2008/10/thank-you-google.html" rel="nofollow">Thank You Google</a></abbr></em> This is exactly the kind of experience I want to make possible for my teachers to use with their students.
