Presentation Description: This presentation will share the story of my classroom being chosen by Skype in the Classroom to follow Mark Wood during his summit attempt of Mount Everest. Educators will be exposed to the power of global communication when helping students become 21st century learners. My goal for this session is to share my experience with other teachers and help them transform their teaching to include learning opportunities outside the classroom. By the end of the session, I hope educators will feel comfortable and invigorated to use Skype in their classrooms.
