An amazing yet simple site for group project management. Share the responsibilities, categorize and make notes, to do's and vote on good ideas. Organize and assign tasks including uploading documents and linking to videos.

A filmmaker's current life in one minute.  Great potential for a project here -- capture your own life in a minute, create a minute in the life of a character, relate a book in a minute -- terrific possibilities

A great and simple way to start developing an online portfolio with this free tool.  Add youtube and vimeo vids, upload files, Google Docs, Blogger and more.  Even guides you through with questions.  Share or keep private.

TED is chock full of amazing content from the world of thinking, making, creating, innovating, etc.   Most folks know about it by now, so why include it?  TED-Ed for one, but for two, it is transformative for enabling customized delivery of the content with piles of UDL features.  It's just awesome.

Customized news feed that is more visual than text. I cannot stand RSS feeds -- this, however, makes me crave more news.  Similar to Flipboard, but less ornery on my classic Android Incredible v1.0

Think of this as an educational Pinterest. You can create a "learning board" where you collect almost ANYTHING from the web you'd like on a topic. People can browse through your boards (or you on theirs) and see embedded video, google docs, forms, other boards. Combines with LOTS of services, Edmodo, Quizlet, Prezi. You can like, comment, share, and track your progress.

This is a site that hosts video (Up to 5GB for a free teacher account) but lets you decide who can see it and who can add to it. It's a better managed Youtube alternative.
