Title: Article: Video Conferencing Links Students, Native Speakers
Body: From http://www.boston.com/news/education/k_12/mcas/articles/2009/03/26/for_tonights_lesson_a_trip_to_guatemala/?page=1 For tonight's lesson, a trip to Guatemala Video technology links students, native speakers By Jennifer Fenn Lefferts March 26, 2009 School administrators at Burlington Evening Academy discovered Speak Shop, a program that connects students to tutors in Guatemala and Venezuela. Students and teachers use Skype, a free software program that allows them to talk to and see one another one on one. The Burlington Evening Academy is the first school in the nation to use Speak Shop and is among the first in the state to take advantage of videoconferencing in the classroom, officials said. Speak Shop was founded by Portland, Ore., resident Clay Cooper in 2005 as a way for people to learn Spanish from a native speaker without the cost of paying for an immersion program. Until this year, all his students were adults learning the language for work or travel, he said.
