 * ooVoo ** :

ooVoo is a free video calling system.That allows someone to connect with up to six different people.ooVoo gives you the opportunity to see people that you would not have the opportunity to otherwise. I was very interested by this tool, since I’ve been seeing the commercials on the television.It seems like a great way to chat with others.


 * Strengths: **
 * Free to use
 * You can leave a voice mail, or text message when you are not around.
 * You can send files and text messages, while chatting.
 * Free video call recording
 * Free file transfer
 * Screen sharing


 * Weaknesses ** :
 * It is only free to talk to three people, any more and you need to purchase a plan
 * Talk time is limited to one minute under the free plan.


 * Opportunities ** : Students can discuss and debate different topics with other students from around the world.


 * Threats ** :
 * use of inappropriate language
 * difficult to control the content of the chats.


 * Ideas for the classroom ** :
 * Have an online Literature circle
 * Guest speakers could phone in and talk on a subject.
 * Complete a class project where they must teach a loved one that is not in the area a new thing they learned in class
 * Get with another teacher that is not in the same school/area and have the 2 or more classes work together on a project
