Title: Online Office Hours: Vokle
Course: Nicaraguan Quest

1. On Tuesday and Wednesday of this week I will host ONLINE OFFICE HOURS with Vokle. Parents and students can log on and we can speak face to face instead of typical email communication.

This brings an oral component to the class which is greatly needed. Normally communication is done exclusively with writing which is flat, boring and exhausting. This is so counterproductive especially since kids want to learn to speak.

This is a test run to see how user friendly the software is. If easy-to-use I may incorporate a 1 on 1 speaking component with students.

See here the 2 meetings I have set up:
