Online communities in the classroom

Description

Online communities and social networks are often shunned by teachers because of negative publicity around certain sites. However some educators have found innovative ways to use these technologies in class. In this film Marie Guyomarch, a secondary French teacher, goes to investigate how Lisa Stevens who teaches Spanish to primary children, makes use of online communities in her classes. It is Marie's challenge to take back what she's learned and start using this technology in her own classroom.
