Photo Pin : Free Photos for Your Blog or Website via Creative Commons - 1 views

  •  
    Since Google created its new image search, I've been really frustrated. To do an advanced search, you now have to scroll to the bottom of the page, go back to "basic search", and then choose advanced search. Typically, I look for this feature because I want Creative Commons licensed images that can be reused on either my blog or the EdTechTeacher blog. While I feel like I heard about Photo Pin before, I'm glad that I rediscovered it today - thanks to Richard Byrne at Free Technology for Teachers. This is a great resource for searching for images licensed for reuse.

A FREE Book App - Cool to Be Clever - iGameMom - 2 views

  • This is a book App targeted at kids 6 and up, or kids who are ready to read chapter-books.  It tells the true story of Edson Hendricks: He was bullied at school, but found comfort in an imaginary world where he had machine parts, and no biological organs or emotions.  Later he went to MIT and IBM, and invented “connectionless” network design, which is used in today’s Internet.

  • I started doing this because often people would miss the links when they're just on a slide at the beginning and end of the presentation. This way people can scan the QR codes with their phones and tablets and have instant access to the resources for the day.
