Short Session Description (one line): Virtually Connecting Students with their Peers
Full Session Description (as long as you would like): In Fall of 2009 I assisted 3 professors to virtually connect their classrooms so that the students could speak with their peers. Students were in Denver and Boulder, CO and Puebla Mexico. We used Google Wave for the discussion and I would like to discuss the pros and cons of using such a tool for such a global connection. After studying more educational tools, I will also share some insights on other possible options.
