I wasn't familiar with Jing but the more I read about it, the more I look forward to using it in the classroom. I do feel the need to learn and explore it more before I try it out in the classroom but I can already see using it as a math station/center students use. Being able to show students how to record the work or answers with out having to show the whole class is a benefit.
Skype is a great tool/resource to use to communicate with others easily and quickly via the computer. I like the fact that even with Skype you don't have to have a webcam in order to communicate. It has lots of uses for teachers and students in the classroom. I like the idea of inviting guest speakers/visitors to interact with students in the classroom without them being physically present. It would be great to use to interact with another classroom in another city, state or country.
