The Best Tools & Apps on the web, a catalogue/database of up and coming tools for you to use in the classroom or an ARG

Students will need to learn and practice new skills-computational thinking (CT) skills-to take full advantage of these revolutionary changes brought about by rapid changes in technology. ISTE and the Computer Science Teachers Association (CSTA) are collaborating on a project to prepare young learners to become computational thinkers who understand how today's digital tools can help solve tomorrow's problems. CT is vital to all students as we work to raise the level of achievement, prepare students for global competitiveness, and blend academics with real life.
