A great website for teachers to incorporate tablets in their classroom. A teacher can search applications according to subject area and grade level. Along with rating the application, the site gives the compatibility of the app such as, does it work with IOS, andriod, ipad, or ipod.
This site is a great resource and a must for all Florida teachers. I was able to find several helpful websites to use in classroom, required standards, and much more,
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.
This website can help you improve performance at all levels. You'll be able to streamline processes, automate tasks, empower teachers, boost parental involvement, and engage every student with personalized learning experiences on the devices they love with "Blackboard".
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!
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.
the website really enhanced my understanding of school grades, No child left behind and data relevant to improving the processes of teaching and learning. I was impressed with the transparency.
Most of the time, kids know more than their parents about the internet. It's important to protect our kids from the dangers that lie within internet usage. Great advice I will give to my parents at Technology Parent Night!
A great reference for good examples of teachers successfully implementing technology in the classroom. As well as a list of free apps for the classroom!
