This website offers pre-made rubrics that teachers can use for various reasons. I will use this website to allow participants in my work shop to use to create their own rubrics for their work stations.

This site helps the teacher create assessments which are authentic and allow the learner to work towards completing the objectives.

Rubrics are a great way to assess student learning and Teach-nology provides many different rubrics for all types of authentic assessments. I have used this site many times in my own classroom for performance tasks, group projects, and individual projects. It offers pre-made rubrics and guidance on creating your own.

This site is part of the eInstruction website. I chose the eI Community as a site to use in my workshop for authentic assessment activities, because it offers teachers the ability to create and upload resources for the Interwrite tablet and Students Response Systems. What better way to assess what a participant has learned than to have them create their own lesson, graphic, or resource and upload it for others to use?

The HotChalk LMS also includes a content library and article / news service. Plus, it's free!

This site is an excellent site for developing think maps or graphic organizers through the use of Power Point. The templates have already been created so it is easy for educators to use. The site also gives examples on when to use the different organizers.

This website contains templates that could be used to create pre-training game activities for the Student Response Systems. By engaging participants in a game using the clickers, this will help inform the presenter the level of understanding and knowledge the participants have of the technology being used.

This website will be a good introduction or pre-training activity for teachers to see how the Interwrite tablet and Student Response Systems work in the classroom. This site will also provide teachers with a glimpse of how they can effectively use the the technology to present material and actively engage students in the lesson.

Teachers will find that this site provides a variety of organizers which students can access on their computers. The information can be input and forwarded without the need of paper and pencil.
