**Division Meeting - 21st Century Connections**
//December 10th, 2007// //3:30-5:00 CST//

The goal of this division meeting is to give faculty members a short overview of some powerful software tools that give students an opportunity to create, collaborate and communicate. The emphasis during the brief demo (20-30 minutes) is on simple, free and easy tools that promote the "3 C's." We'll do a few quick skype calls to a teacher and her class in New Zealand and Gene Yang, an author in San Francisco. We'll also take a peek at a couple of voicethread projects. Following the demos, department teams will have sixty minutes to work together to create a project in voicethread and embed their finished piece in their collaborative wiki workspace. Each department will also have the time to do a little reflecting and we'll summarize our experience with a quick skype call at the end. Another BIG goal is to have a little fun during this process!
