PROBLEMS WITH SKYPE?

                        SKYPE MAY DISTRACT STUDENTS AND TEACHERS FROM
                        ACHIEVING STANDARDS AND GOALS.

                        STUDENT INTERACTION MAY FOCUS PRIMARILY ON THE
                        SOCIAL ASPECT WITH LITTLE FOCUS ON THE CONTENT.

                        VIRTUAL COMMUNICATION WITH OTHER TEACHERS AND
                        CLASSROOMS MAY NOT RUN AS PLANNED. NO
                        GUARANTEES.

                        TIME. HOW CAN VIDEOCONFERENCING BE JUSTIFIED AS
                        AN EFFICIENT USE OF CLASSROOM TIME. AGAIN NO
                        GUARANTEES STANDARDS WILL BE MET.

HOW TO MAKE IT WORK

                        SKYPE CAN BE AN INVALUABLE COMMUNICATION TOOL
                        CONNECTING THE STUDENTS TO THE WORLD.

                        TEACHERS NEED TO DO SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF
                        WORK, RESEARCH, AND COMMUNICATION PRIOR TO USE
                        TO MAKE SURE GOALS ARE REACHED.

                        AS WITH ALL TECHNOLOGIES, TEACHERS AND
                        STUDENTS ALIKE NEED TO BE AWARE OF THE
                        DOWNFALLS OF THE PROGRAM AND HAVE A CLEAR SET
                        OF NORMS ESTABLISHED.
