[LM_NET] TECH Classroom uses of video Skype

[Gordon Walter <gordonwalter@MCHSI.COM>]

Yesterday, Oprah demoed video Skype, including a mention of possible 
uses in the classroom.

One example showed a high school girl who became sick but was able to 
finish her junior year from her hospital bed.
If any of you have used video Skype for classroom purposes, what 
specific purposes have you used it for?
What problems have you encountered?
