This popular online classroom community provides a free set of web-based tools for teachers who want to integrate web 2.0 into the classroom. Tools include an online assignment calendar, an online gradebook, an online attendance book, secure online messaging, and instant progress reports. Engrade is a great way for teachers to constantly stay in touch with students, parents, and administrators.
Similar to MindMeister, this free Web 2.0 application allows users to construct concept maps, save, and share them with friends. It's really helpful when organizing your thoughts for an essay/paper or when studying.
This web 2.0 is alot like GoogleDocs. Writeboard is a free web-based tool that allows students to easily collaborate on a single document online. Different versions of the document are automatically tracked and saved so that old ideas are never lost and can be easily monitored by teachers. It would be incorporated well into an english class.
This is an absolutely free website that allows teachers to create quizzes, exams, worksheets, study guides, etc. Once created, you save the document on Quizinator ... you / your students are able to access these documents!! It really is a really cool resource!
This is actually an interesting way to share info found on the web. You can highlight the pieces of a page you want others to see instead of sharing the whole page. Just something similar to diigo or delicious, but you share just parts of a page instead of a whole.
This is a really interesting site that is like traveling all over the world, but staying at home. You can use the internet to learn about destinations, remember goals, play games, write a diary and so on. It seems like a strange site for teachers, but I actually think it would be really cool to use in a history class, a social studies class, or a foreign language class. Its like traveling the world, but staying in the same room. They can learn about the countries we're studying about and write some ideas or questions about it on their blog.
This is a great website for students and teachers who are interested in being tutored or doing tutoring. Students will find a lot of subject related help on this page while teachers may use it to learn more on their topic.
Cramberry is a unique site that makes it easy for students to learn and study new material through online flashcards. Students or teachers can make customized sets of cards that can be printed or studied online.
This site is similar to prezi. It is a new/better version of a PowerPoint. Teachers can use Eduslide to deliver elearning modules to students inside and outside the classroom. Modules can include multiple lessons with text, slides, flashcards, links to other sites, audio, and video.
