 * tashacowdy || 10:32 || @derekbartels Not a skype project as such; we use skype as one (sync) communication tool to support our collab poroject #globalclassroom ||
 * JSSALC || 10:32 || @murcha ...yes. Need to take opportunity as well. #globalclassroom ||
 * ICT_Integrator || 10:33 || Q3 - HOW can we help tchrs overcome the challenges,obstacles faced by tchrs interested in flattening their classroom walls? #globalclassroom ||
 * derekbartels || 10:34 || @2footgiraffe it depends on your next unit or learning episode of work on how you grow the Pakistan collab relationship? #globalclassroom ||

 * derekbartels || 10:36 || @tashacowdy Can you give us an example of a collab project in the google doc pls thanks #globalclassroom ||
 * ICT_Integrator || 10:36 || Step one I would say is show them how to make global connections themselves - such as Twitter. #globalclassroom ||
 * tashacowdy || 10:37 || @ICT_Integrator Could we help teachers by supporting them in developing their own PLNS first.? Easier to make the leap. #globalclassroom ||
 * ICT_Integrator || 10:37 || Might be a good idea to start local first, find a school in another province, state etc. then expand further? #globalclassroom ||
 * ICT_Integrator || 10:38 || @tashacowdy Great minds think alike :) #globalclassroom ||
 * derekbartels || 10:39 || @ICT_Integrator Yes helping Tchrs engage Globally for their own PLN first is a great step to facilitating their stdnts #globalclassroom ||
