Skype Education

Skype is creating a free online directory of schools and teachers who want to connect and use Skype in education. Skype Education will launch in December.

Once you sign up with your Skype account and create a profile, you’ll be able to search for other teachers and classes by subject and region. You can also share inspiration and tips to help kids learn with Skype.

From today teachers can request an invitation to use the beta version of the directory. If you’re a teacher and you would like to be among the first to use Skype in the classroom, provide your email address and Skype send you an invitation.
