This looks like a handy tool for maps lessons. You can do all this in google earth but having the drawing tools over laid at the top of the screen is very handy and quite user friendly for students.
So it looks like persuasive writing is on the agenda for NAPLAN, surprise, surprise... This is a great post on using picture story books to assist in teaching persuasive writing. If anything it the books listed are worth having a look at with your students
This is a fantastic web 2.0 tool. Upload images and annotate. You can other embed media inside the annotations. Annotations pop up as you click or hover over the objects you add. You can embed the annotated image into webpage or blog. This could be a useful tool for teachers and students. Lots of scope for creativity with layers etc. You can share to a group and set editing permissions for public or restricted people/groups for collaboration purposes.
This is a great wiki in general for maths students and teachers. I particularly like some of the practical application of maths to everyday situations. For students to link real world concepts to abstract concepts is important for students to engage in their learning. It also links creative thinking in maths. Which in my opinion is what maths is all about.
