Welcome to the Middle School iChat wiki. The Middle School iChat wiki provides a space to explore using Apple's [|iChat] software for videoconferencing between middle school classrooms.

The Middle School iChat wiki is also a design document for training teachers to set up and execute videoconferencing using iChat.

The Middle School iChat wiki uses two design approaches for the organization and execution of videoconferencing using iChat.

The [|Understanding By Design mode]l (aka UbD) is a three phase model of goal-setting, assessment design, and then development of learning activities. These phases are addressed in sections 1, 2 and 3 respectively.

The analysis and design elements of the ADDIE development model are explored in sections 3 and 4 respectively.
