I am interested in working with another elementary school to do a little video conferencing. We currently have a webcam and are able to use Skype or other free Internet based video conferencing tools. I teach technology in 1st through 5th grade. We would love to try a little collaborative sharing. Ideas: (discussing a book, sharing about our school and our town, geography of our area, etc.) Other ideas would be welcome since this is our first venture into the world of video conferencing.

Look forward to hearing from other elementary school teachers who would like to try it out with us.

Hi Sharon,
Where are you located? We live in Illinois. My wife teaches second grade teacher and uses Skype. She is interested in connecting with other schools around the country. Let me know how you would like to move forward. I am a technologist for the district and help connect teachers to opportunities like this. Look forward to hearing from you.
Best,
Joe

I would really like to participate in some form of webconference. I suggest looking at DIMDIM it not only allows up to 20 groups to conference but you can also share screen and it is free. I teach 4th grade math and social studies where I use loads of tech.
Video conferencing equipments are not only helpful for larger organizations. It can work for the smaller businesses as well. If you want to enhance and spread your business, but you do not have expenses so that you can meet some other clients in other parts of the world. You must go for the video conferencing. This will help you to interact with far away clients and partners. Therefore, whatever the size of your organization is, the video conferencing can help and guide you in all ways. This technological solution to your business conferencing helps you to become more and more competitive in the market. At the same time with the innovation you can be more productive as you can share your presentations, your ideas, and your future goals. Another important aspect in this regard is that with the help of the video conference, you can train and educate your employees more efficiently, at any time and multiple recipients at the desktop. The companies that are producing this device are introducing more and more facilities with the technology so that it can help you more to boost your business throughout the world.
