Welcome to the K12 Online Echo - I'm Susan van Gelder
====This is your opportunity to watch some sessions from the past, share your reactions and reflections and ask questions of the presenters. We hope you will have fun while we air the presentation and share ideas.====

Let's watch your video then more questions Paula and Jan's video is entitled Seeds to Success with Skype
They share their lessons learned, experiences, and celebrations as Skype buddies. Included are ways to find other classes to connect with and how to find projects to get started.

What motivated you to create the presentation for the conference and has anything changed since you made that presentation that you could share with us? - have you started on new collaborations this year? what kinds of projects? Did either of you have any issues in your place of work re using Skype? Have others in your schools gotten involved in online collaborations since seeing what you have done? What kinds of topics did your students choose to explore via Skype? Risk taking and learning with your students - what did your students gain from that? What do you see as the "hot topics" or pressing issues related to the use of technology in schools emerging among the educators you work with at this time?

What are some examples you are seeing related to technology use in in your school/community that excite you? What kind of feedback did you get from parents whose children showed them Skype? What, if anything has changed in your practice since you created your presentation?

What was the aftermath of you presentation - did anyone contact you for more information? do you know of anyone who was influenced by your presentation? Has anyone shared their followup to your session? Have you heard any stories from others?

What benefits to the students do you see with this kind of exchanges. https://sites.google.com/site/seedstosuccesswithskype/ Thanks to for once again sharing his / her expertise.
