Inanimate Alice is Transmedia - designed from the outset as a story that unfolds over time and on multiple platforms, the episodes are available on all devices capable of running Adobe's Flash Player.

Mission US is a multimedia project featuring free interactive adventure games set in different eras of U.S. history. The first game, Mission 1: "For Crown or Colony?," puts the player in the shoes of Nat Wheeler, a 14-year-old printer's apprentice in 1770 Boston.

This math activity gives links for the teacher to print out a wacky ruler and some wacky worms for students to measure. The ruler is wacky because students actually have to estimate some of the measurements. Students can practice skills in measurement and estimation. When students are finished measuring they can come up to the site and put in what they think each worm's length is.

Student's personal websites made with Weebly but linked using Wikispaces to reflect on what they have learned and accomplished.

Just imagine students doing this throughout middle or high school and then commenting on each other's progress. A student reflecting on what they have learned is so powerful! The format using Blogger is clean and simple.

Students using Diigo...very cool!
