Digital Age Collaboration and Communication Tools
Digital collaboration and communication tools are valuable to expanding the learning beyond the classroom walls. Students can become aware and interact with different cultures, different perspectives, and different ideas. Some tools to use with this are:
- Google Hangouts
- Educational blogs
- Digital field trips
- Global Projects
- Classroom lesson sharing

Personal Reflection
The lessons I taught and thought up were super fun! I had a great time with the Fairytale exchange! My students loved seeing students from a different school and they loved performing for the students from the different school. I really wanted to do a mystery number with another school, but time got away from me and I forgot all about it. Next school year I would love to try some more collaboration lessons with other teachers in the district.
