Tech in the Classroom (325):
Click here for a link to Skype Video Calling Technology for Classrooms

Skype is a video calling system created through the use of computers and the internet.  Users create a free account, download some software and get access to contacting many different people across the world.  How can a teacher utilize this technology in the classroom?  Connection is the key.  Skype provides a way to connect classrooms across the world.  With this ability to connect anywhere in the world, I can use this to connect with other math classes, combine lessons, and show students different ways of experiencing math.  This technology allows me to give students another way to reflect their skills with another class from around the world.  This opens the doors to so many different ways of communicating in a classroom through the use of video.
