Super Cool School
I watched the demo video for SuperCoolSchool and was very impressed. It reminded me a lot of WizIQ or WebEx but it seemed more tailored for students. I think it would be a fun idea to use something like this in a classroom to empower students to become their own "experts" in something. They could start their own schools, or we could start our own school as a class, and they could offer classes taught by themselves. This could be a great alternative to group or individual presentations or a great way to teach public speaking with a fun technological twist. Students enjoy being masterful at something, and a tool like this could help them display their expertise. This could integrate areas in students' lives where they feel like experts, such as pop culture or technical skills, and areas where they don't, such as schoolwork.
