Jing and Skype are two great tools that could be powerful in the classroom.
I found Jing similar to the flip charts, power points, or photo stories that I have used before. I would have to explore it more to find its niche in my teaching.
Skype is very interesting to me. I liked the idea of virtual field trips, author visits, speakers, interviews, tutorial, and exchanging ideas with families. Professionally, I can see it as a good tool in conferencing with parents (if they have the technology) and professional development.
I am trying to find places to incorporate my new learning with the curriculum.
