A screencast in jing could help you write curriculum in collaboration with other teachers and Specialists...how convenient and wonderful to generate variety of ideas and documents. It could also be used to capture video footage of real life teachable moments. For example, one could demonstrate a concept by capturing video of an actual event happening on campus that reflects the learning at hand.
Skype is a really cool teleconferencing tool! I can see it being used for book clubs communicating between campuses. Students could discuss books with classes from another school just like Oprah's real life Book Clubs. Another neat manner to use Skype would be to create field trips communicating with others from another Country..."Ok class, are we ready for our field trip to England?"...and there you are receiving cultural exchanges from a class in Manchester.
This would be wonderful to have an "author's visit" via skype rather than a physical visit to the campus.
These tools are truly remarkable.
