A Handy Dropbox Cheat Sheet for Teachers ~ Educational Technology and Mobile Learning - 0 views

  •  
    Dropbox is one of the most popular cloud based platforms for hosting and sharing files. Like Google Drive, Dropbox offers a decent free storage space to start with and there is also the possibility to buy more storage capacity. Unless it is a Google doc or presentation, I always save my PDFs and other documents to Dropbox. What I like the most about this tool is its syncing capacities which are way faster than Google Drive. You can upload a PDF on your desktop and access it instantly on your Dropbox account  in iPad.

Making Student Blogs More than Digital Diaries - Getting Smart by Dave Guymon - bloggin... - 0 views

  • Put simply, a digital footprint is what your students would see if they Googled themselves. And whether or not they know it, each of them has a footprint online. A digital footprint is made up of both passive information about Internet use and actively volunteered content.
