11.5 Things-Thing 3-Skype

I have registered on Skype! After reading about Skype I am genuinely excited about this. I have had problems connecting, though. How to use Skype in the classroom? Well, after reading 50 Awesome Ways to Use Skype in the Classroom, I don't see how I could possibly add to that very creative list. I particularly liked the ideas of using Skype for connecting with other classes in other parts of the world, for allowing students who may be sick at home to participate in class lectures and lessons, and for virtual field trips. Wow! That's only three of the ideas.
