I will be online with edmodo from now. Post a question?. I understand yoou teachers have lots on. I think we can try asynchronous by using the wiki as a space and also using twitter ( ? ). I twittered the details for edmodo. (edmodo is an educational twitter/msm, i think that is how you describe it) I can imagine, when back at school it will so much easier, we will be in the classroom space. That is going to be interesting. Pass on the message to others. ok Lucy here we go. I think I just wanted to allocate some jobs; And then we can negotiate around that.
