 * Darrell
 * Ashley De Marr || Skype || Students can yse this tool to interact with other students across the country. Students can share ideas in similar topics. Students can also collaborate on projects. ||
 * Ira Sullivan || E-mail and Chat || As teachers, there are several reasons why we use email and chat sites. We talk to close friends, do work, and other things. I think students could communicate to their teachers through emails and also chat with their instructors when they are available. Student could email assignments and things of that sort. ||
 * Tavessa Wilson || Survey/Polling || Survey/polling can be used in my unit to assess the community knowlegde on what countries they though were the top three countries with which the United States trades, and what the top three U.S. exports and imports are. Students will be able to tally up the results of their surveys and share their results with the class. This will enable students to examine actual trade data to determine which countries are the leading trading partners with the United States and what products are the leading U.S. exports and imports. ||


 * Online Collaboration Tools**
 * = **Name** ||= **Tool**
 * blogs, wikis, online collaborative sites** ||< **How can it be used in your unit?** ||
 * Fatina Jackson || Blogs || This tool can be used as a means of journal writing. The students can post their experience on the their blog page. ||
 * Darrell Combs || Wikis || This tool can be used to do practice problems. Students can log on and complete problems and correct those that are incorrect by their classmates. ||
 * Ira Sullivan || Wikis and Blogs || Before this class, I never thought about using wikis and blogs with my students. Next year I will definantly be sending letters to parents to let them know that as a class we will be using them both. The teacher, parent, and student could post new pages to wikispaces and discuss some issue that they may be having. Parents and students could also blog on the classroom blog page. ||
 * Tavessa Wilson || Wikis || Wikis can allow students to build on unit information collaboratively. During this process students will be able to collect and collate information needed as well as view interactive sites. ||
