Video Conferencing

ISTE-NETS-T Standard 3. Model Digital Age Work and Learning

Teachers exhibit knowledge, skills, and work processes representative of an innovative professional in a global and digital society.

b. Collaborate with students, peers, parents, and community members using digital tools and resources to support student success and innovation 

Video conferencing seems to address this ISTE-NETS-T standard. By using webcams to interact with other groups, teachers are able to provide their students a means to exchange knowledge with other students. 

Here is a website which describes five different ways video conferencing can be beneficial to the classroom. It listed ideas that I had never even thought of before. Very informative read.
