gClassFolders is a tool that allows for management of all the files that students share with teachers and allows for sharing easily with students. The setup is straight forward and sets up three folders for students for a class - Edit, Preview(Read Only) and Dropbox to turn work in. If your school can't afford Hapara or you don't want to spend lots of time setting up folders, this may be the tool for you.

"OpenMedia.ca is a grassroots organization that safeguards the possibilities of the open and affordable Internet. We work towards informed & participatory digital policy."

This made me say "yes!". I love using digital form to read for my book club, because my notes are all organized - I really can engage with the text, more than I normally would (and no lost sticky notes)

Although this is written with younger students in mind, there are some good ideas of the skills all beginning bloggers need to learn, how to organize posts in a spreadsheet and track posts using Feedly, an RSS reader. Some good ideas for the classroom teacher. If 4th graders can blog, why not older students?

Sharing and collecting student work in Google Drive takes some work when manually creating folders. gClassFolders makes that process easier for both students & teachers. View the demo video to get a sense of the process. This is a free way to get the job done. You may also want to look at Hapara, which has bells and whistles that'll surprise you!

DIY learning, development. Interesting graphic and organization.

"Through digital curation we collect, manage and collate the best, most relevant content, on a specific topic or theme,  for ourselves and share with others.

This post is a summary of ideas, tips, and resources to become an effective curator.

Excellent introduction to the practice of Curation for Professional Learning. Engage in curation by using the steps of aggregation, evaluation, and organization. Use these resources to support all aspects of your teaching practice.

Joann Fox (AppEducation.com), a member of my PLN, shares how she's made Twitter her top Personal Learning activity and how you can, too. Oh, yeah, she's a CA teacher like you, except she does 4th grade...and is a blogger, San Diego Co. Teacher of Year, CA , co-founder of #CAedchat, #EdCampSD organizer, and Google Certified Teacher. She's a connected teacher.

Here are some good tips on how to streamline the information you face on the Internet, email, etc. Like Jodie, I'm working to implement the GTD organizational system using Evernote & Web Clipper, Diigo, Google Mail, Google Reader, Twitter, Google Drive, etc. 

Practical tips on how to increase blog comments & the interaction you are looking for as a learner.

Quad blogging is also another way to ensure an audience for your blog. We have had great success organizing ourselves into quads over at #edcmooc. http://quadblogging.net I mentioned it in #etmooc, but no takers yet.
