I was talking with one of our presenters from Australia via Skype http://www.skype.com/ and he said :

Graham Wenger says:
The K12 Online thank you was fantastic!
[5:17:42 AM] Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach says: oh good. Just wanted to make sure they went out.
[5:17:44 AM] Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach says: Thanks...
[5:18:05 AM] Graham Wegner says: Is it OK to link out to it from my blog?
[5:18:11 AM] Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach says: sure
[5:18:35 AM] Graham Wegner says: There's nothing like seeing a person speak to make connections more real.
[5:18:42 AM] Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach says: ahhh I am so glad. I think personalities come through more easily with video.
[5:19:01 AM] Graham Wegner says: I had a big grin on my face reading it.
[5:19:18 AM] Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach says: you mean watching.. right?
[5:19:33 AM] Graham Wegner says: watching - right!

This would work well with our digitally motivated students as a means of peer review. Our as a way of mentoring novice teachers around the world.

What if your students sent a message to another class about a project you were collaborating on? Or a video update to parents on what you are doing in class?

What ideas do you have on how to use digital video as a means of deepening learning?

Oh btw... Graham and I ended our conversation by discussing kangaroos.
