This is a great video on the basics of Flipped Classrooms. Assigning lecture time for homework, leaving class time for more one-on-one attention.

This is an interesting site that could be used for students to do self-journal assignments. There would no longer be a need for bulky notebooks or binders, as the journal site would replace such. Teachers can set up a class and have administrative access to grade/comment on the student journal entries. I have not used this, but it looks like it could be a great tool.

For the ESOL teacher, or student...find ideas for LEP (any language) students. Teaching through technology has been proven to be effective in areas of language deficiency. I've used a few of the Webquests in the Reading section in my classes. If you have the computers in your room or media center, this is a MUST HAVE book mark!

Don't settle for ordinary digital photos for your presentations. With Smilebox you can add border and pizazz to your visual reports and image presentations. Fast, easy (took me 15 minutes to set up and get started), and fun. Your students will really enjoy playing with the options.

This is a visual thesaurus in which students can enter a word and immediately find dozens of synonyms...which then give even more. No longer will you have reports handed in with the same drab vocabulary. Encourage the use of this in your class!

This is a great resource for teachers looking for fast assessments (exit slips, tally answers, etc). Free accounts are available and you can see real time results as students answer. It can be set to have one answer per computer/smart phone, or multiple answers per. Great to have parents leave anonymous comments to questions.

With all of the new "apps" and programs in Web 2.0, this is a great one-stop-shop to locate different applications in the different genres. I like this because of all of the different options in each category.
