Is there a link to see how everything was put together. It all sounds very good, I look forward to doing this in the future with my class. I read all the kids comments and realize how interested they are in the different cultures. Great way to learn. I would be interested in watching the video if possible, was it recorded?

With time, hopefully we can fine tune it so that I may be able to share my laptop contents directly as you did with brigid conferencing tools. At the end of the session skype wanted me to give feedback on the session, so voice breakup may lessen as they improve their service. Thank you for letting me part of this wonderful project. Would love to continue working with you. Our students may come back to school at night and be part of a 2way student interaction as well at the conclusion to your topic.

Looks like I'll be back for another 4 years...hope we can show off some of these projects to DEC. I'm hoping to get us all more involved in "student voice", so it was interesting to see Chad's students respond to his "stress" question on FB. We need to find a way to use these tools!

Instead of just telling students about how to interact globally, you gave them first hand experience that they will never forget. I hope I can do something like this with the grad course that I'm teaching this summer. Good job! That sounds so cool!
