    The main page for the Flat Classroom Project wikis. Created by Vicki Davis and Julie Lindsay, Flat Classroom is a wiki that allows students to participate in collaborative, global "flattening" projects through online communication, use of web 2.0 tools, and Thomas Friedman's mentality that "the world is flat."

    This website is a great resource for teachers to use to improve their classroom and teaching. It includes lesson plans, activities, thematic units, bulletin board ideas, printable worksheets, collaboration projects, books, and other resources as well. I would use this to help improve my teaching. I would also have my students look at the bulletin board ideas and help me put together bulletin boards.

    This looks like a great resource for anyone in education, teaching or learning. It is well organized and provides links to a lot of useful free tools. I wish I had this stuff when I was growing up.

    This looks like a great resource for elementary teachers, providing so many links in one place. It is like an annotated bibliography, presenting various resources for teachers to use, making it easy for us to navigate. Though I plan to teach in secondary education, some of these categories could still be used with high schoolers in my English classroom, especially Google and the Research & Reference resources. I think that teachers in elementary education will find this resource very useful, and I could even show it so some of my high school students so that they would have different things to explore if they were interested. I found a similar website that compiles resources from around the web, focusing on Language Arts education: http://www.internet4classrooms.com/lang_mid.htm. Here, there are citation guides, research help, online literature links, and many other great activities for the LA classroom.

    This looks like a great resource to keep on hand for teachers! I feel like it should be used mostly by teachers and they should definitely take advantage of it. Too often do teachers use the same routine every day and use stuff out of books! Why not go on the computer and research things that can spice up your classroom.

    This is a great resource for teachers to use in their classrooms to enhance learning. It has a WIDE variety of useful tools that can make learning more fun and engaging. I would recommend that the teacher scans through these options prior to opening them up to students. The teacher could select a few good ones and show them to the students to use during class or at home. I do no have any bookmarks similar to this one, but I am sure there are a lot out there that could be just as helpful. Thanks for sharing the great resource!

    This article highlights some of the topics discussed during a virtual meeting (UNI - INSTTEC4131/5131) on 11/16/11.  "Rich Environments for Active Learning, or REALs, are comprehensive instructional systems that evolve from and are consistent with constructivist philosophies and theories. REALs provide learning activities that engage students in a continuous collaborative process of building and reshaping understanding as a natural consequence of their experiences and interactions within learning environments that authentically reflect the world around them."

    I really enjoy edmodo. For a class last semester a group I was in created a "class" on edmodo just to get the feel of it. It really creates a nice environment for students to be a part of. It is inviting to them because of the social aspect, yet remains safer than other social networking sites could be.

    Skype's education portal, which connects teachers to classrooms all over the world using Skype for students to interact. A great way for educators who wish to use Skype in their classroom to find out more about the technology! Educators can also share and collaborate their ideas on this site, as well as find other educators who are willing to Skype to their classrooms.
  • anonymous on 13 Nov 11
     
    This is a great resource for teachers. Having this directory of other teachers that use Skype is really helping us flatten the walls of our classroom. I have use Skype for years now and I did not know that they had this out. The classroom that I am working in now would benefit from this resources because we are doing a unit called "Around the World" we have Skype a few people we know personally but this would allows us to talk a person from every country we go.
  • John Hubbard on 14 Nov 11
     
    This is a really good resource for teachers. Skype is a great resource in the classroom. The opportunities that Skype bring to the classroom are endless. I have used Skype for other uses but never in the classroom. Students are able to use this as a way to meet students from across the world.
  • Mikael Rein on 14 Nov 11
     
    I had never thought about using Skype in the classroom until now. This is a great resource for both students and teachers. You can even collaborate with other classes using this. This reminds me of the flat classroom project but with a lot more potential.

    This is a site that is great to use in a classroom. A teacher can pose a question on a board and students can comment on it and express their thoughts. When messages are added, they pop up on the screen like a post-it note. Good for class discussions when the students aren't all together!

    This wiki is a resource for teachers to use to improve the education of their students. This wiki focuses on Math. I could use this wiki for personal reasons, I am a math minor and love to read up on various techniques used to teach math to elementary students. Also, students can use this wiki as a resource and medium for projects as well.

    This webpage has 17 different Web 2.0 tools and provides links to various resources for each of the 17 tools. I would use this personally for instruction. I would also have my students use various tools listed, such as survey makers, presentation tools and word cloud generators as a classroom tool.

    An alternative to Google apps. You can write documents, make presentations, chat, and even have another source for email.

    This is a very useful tool, and it is free for educational purposes. I don't know how needed it is, however, because most of the features can already be found on-line for free. I feel that Google would be a better option for schools, because it is more widely used and student would be able to make use it after graduation.

    "Best site for building rubric templates." It allows you to pick from a list of projects, (say a Newspaper Article) then it gives you options for categories for the rubric.
