Brainstorm online with bubbl.us. Easily create colorful mind maps to print or share with others. Almost no learning curve. Businesses, universities, and other schools are using bubbl.us worldwide to generate ideas, map out processes and create presentations. I have used this site with my MOT students at UIndy when they return from analyzing workers at Costco. We consolidate their responses on this site, i.e., we use a different bubble to represent each dept. at Costco, i.e., Membership, Scanning, Tire Center, Bakery and Meat Dept. I imagine that it would be extremely effective for any "brainstorming" session that you might want to complete as an online exercise. I'm wondering whether it can be used in conjunction with Adobe Connect?

Merlot Collection made up of 40,000 materials in 19 different material type categories. Materials are submitted by members of MERLOT community. Membership is free. I just signed up as adjunct faculty member and this appears to be an excellent resource for online teaching and learning. I recall being exposed to it in Julie Gahimer's course on Instructional Design & Delivery, but have neglected to use it.

Excellent resource for students learning to write a PICO question. Thought this could come up in online research-related courses. The example is directly related to the dental population, but easy to follow.
