Subject: [Technical] Shared sessions

Our Yr5 and Yr6 classes make good use of the collaborative features 
of MS OneNote in their lessons. We have a relationship with a nearby 
boys' school which presumably also makes good use of OneNote. One of 
our Yr5 teachers has asked if it is possible to set up real-time 
shared sessions between us and them, but since we are on different 
and unconnected networks, my boss (the network manager) and I can't 
see a way to do this as things are at the moment.

Can anyone suggest a method to set up real-time shared collaboration 
(not necessarily OneNote) sessions over unconnected networks? I'm 
thinking maybe wiki or Moodle, but I have little knowledge of such things.

thanks
Jim
