Tool 9

Jing sounds so exciting! It would be a great tool to use when you have a group of children learning to use the computer. I think I will have to try to set something up regarding how to start using the computers. Each year, we give the same lesson to small groups about how to use the computer. I think it would be a great too, especially knowing in advance that we will have netbooks in the room. How exciting! I am definitely planning on setting something up for the children to use this fall! I have used Skype before and love it as a tool. I've even conference called on it and spoken to someone in Costa Rica and Slovakia from Houston! The only problem is that you lose video when you conference call, but it is still an incredible tool to use. In our room, it would be great to use if a child was out of the room for a long time. It would have been good to use when I was on bedrest several years ago.
