The 9s were collaborating with their partners wonderfully via Google Hangouts today. It was great to see them communicating in such a different way than they're used to. When interacting with each other this way, they have to process what it is they need to say to their partner to get the answers and responses they desire. Some got frustrated, but after a few moments of thinking, they typed out their thoughts and voila! their partner understood! Not only is this assignment great for them to work on their communication, but I have access to all of the stuff they're working on, I can Google Hangout with the groups themselves, AND help them edit their assignment along the way. It's working fantastically! Their creative minds have come up with some pretty impressive urban legends. Maybe you'll be hearing some of them through the grapevine soon!
