LONDON calling Paris!

In ICT club this week, Mrs Cooper had two sealed envelopes labeled "Paris" and "London".  Also two of our computer rooms had signs on the doors LONDON and the other PARIS.. there were only two in club as everyone else was on the trip to Kingswood.  Cameron and Chloe chose an envelope and then went into two separate rooms.....





















We logged into a pre booked flashmeeting (a neat video conferencing online facility)  We could see the other person via a webcam (see below).  We opened our envelopes  and via the chat facility we had to guess the object in the other city's envelope.  It was a bit like a game of 20 Questions, you  had to ask something to find out what objects were for example, is it living/is it bigger than a cat.  As Cameron was in Paris his answers had to be "Oui" or "Non" wheras Chloe was in London, so could only answer Yes or No!   It was quite tricky, but fun...the objects were...

Deux bananes
Un Chat
Headphones
four cars

This was really a fun thing to do and we we would like to do it again.  Can you think of a game or some good use of this video conferencing facility??
