Prezi.com is a site to create active presentations. The active engagement requires a focus on behavioral and cognitive activity, as the creation of a presentation in Prezi is work for the educator utilizing both areas. The Prezi is technology-centered learning for the creator of the presentation, however, once the product is complete it is considered learner-centered as it is a product created by an educator for a student to view.
Wikispaces.com is a site to build an online access point for students, educators, or even just a spot for friends to gather and post pictures, stories, recipes, etc. The Wiki is technology-centered learning.
Gaggle.com is a site for teacher-student communication, utilizing email, discussion boards, calendars, texting, assignment/dropbox areas, and document collaboration/editing capabilities. I would consider the site as a technology-centered learning, however, cognitive learning must be factored in once content is up and being implemented. Reference: Mayer, R. E. (2009).
