Cheryl Oakes (USA) and Terry Freedman (UK) discussed whiteboards via Skype using Voice and Chat, and then wrote this up using Google Docs». Enjoy the discussion, and let’s have your views too.
In an effort to collaborate on their blog sharing, Terry, in the UK, and Cheryl, in the USA, skyped ( an internet phone call) on Saturday December 16, 2006. As in most SKYPE phone calls there is the obligatory, time check in each time zone, weather or season check, and setting the mood for the conversation to follow. It is really a conversation, just a 21st Century tool. Cheryl wanted to get more information about the SmartBoards that are appearing in classrooms in the States. She had read about how many schools across the UK have been using these tools for over a couple years. Here is a summary of the conversation. During the conversation, which seemed so natural, Cheryl was impressed with why it seemed like a friendly conversation, she had listened to Terry’s podcast before, so she knew his voice already, only this time it was a 2 way conversation. Grab a cup of tea and enjoy the discussion.
Cheryl: How did England get involved with the SmartBoards in classrooms?
Terry: Interactive whiteboards is all I know about, Smartboards and Mimio boards are a brand name. Enter a contest to win a Mimio or go here for grant information.
