Looking for a Quick Skype

I'm leading a Web 2.0 tools in-service on Tues. July 28th from 8:00am-11:30 am EST. I would love to find an educator who would be willing to Skype in as I introduce the software for @5-10 min and share how you use Skype in your classroom. I'm flexible on the exact time as long as it's within that time frame. Thanks!

I would be glad to help you with the demo, although I have not yet used Skype in the classroom, so I may not be what you need.

Thanks, TJ! I'll let you know..I was looking for someone to actually share classroom examples rather than demo, but if that doesn't work out, I'll be in touch. Thanks so much for responding!

I'd be interested in pursuing this. Do you have something specific in mind? My school is located in Canby, OR (30 miles south of Portland). I teach 4th graders. Let me know! I'm always looking for ways to connect my kids to other places and using the most current (and free) technology, just tops the cake!

I'm sorry for the late reply. Last year, I was the only teacher who used Skype with other classes outside our system. I believe there are several teachers now interested in collaboration. Let me know if you have specific teachers/grade levels and I'll see if I can find a match for you.
