I have been using Skype for many different creative projects over the years in my own classroom, I think it is a fantastic free tool here is a blog post back from 2009 all about one of them.
I loved seeing this recently from the Skype in the Classroom team @skypeclassroom about #MysterySkype, I confess I hadn’t even heard about it so checked it out.
Mystery Skype is an educational game played by two classrooms on Skype. The aim of the game is to guess the location of the other classroom by asking each other strategic questions. Mystery Skype can be played by students of all ages.
With nearly 70,000 teachers from all over playing a part in the Skype in the Classroom community this could be a really great project https://education.skype.com/collections/mystery-skype With regards to the title I don’t even know what a date is let alone a blind date
