    A good site! It's kinda like a academic video tutorial library. The resources here are really amazing! It provides video tutorials with different subjects (most of them are about math) and different levels to students and allows them to practice what they have learned through online testing. I think it's a good resource for home schooling students. Thanks for sharing!

    This is an interesting website! When I was looking at it, I wanted to bookmark it for myself to show my high school teachers. It could be used for teachers and students, but not only that parents can go on there too! I am not strong in the math area so this would be perfect for me!

    This is a great website! I have seen this mentioned on the news a couple of months ago. It has a lot of interactive videos for students and teachers to use to enhance learning. This would be a great site to show students at the beginning of the year so they can reference for assistance throughout the year. Bookmarking it now! I am unaware of any other similar sites at this point.

    This is a great tool for math and science teachers. It's a really good resource for kids to have when they are struggling with a concept. When it's uploaded as video they can chose their own pace by pausing the video. I myself have used YouTube videos like this to help me learn something new.

    I have used this site myself to help with math tutoring and it really is a efficient tool to do some quick teaching.

    This website could be a great resource for students and teachers in science, math, history, language arts, etc. This site will allow students to create a fake page about a famous individual. This combines things students enjoy (Facebook) and school material. If you can create an appropriate and interactive project, it can be very enjoyable for students.

    This looks like a great site Katie! I can definitely see myself using this in the future. I will be an ESL teacher, so it will be a good way to practice simple English phrases, as well as learning content. Thanks for sharing!

    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 periodic table integrates QR (quick response) codes for specific elements. Scanning an individual qr code with your mobile device (smartphone, tablet, etc.) via a qr reader, will take you to YouTube videos that provide additional information about a specific element. This can be an innovative way of utilizing QR codes in a chemistry class.

    Here is a great example of using QR codes to support a chemistry curriculum.

    I really like this site.Teachers are always looking for suggestions. For teachers who are using iPads in the classroom, this would be a beneficial site to acquire apps that will suit all lesson plans. This site provides more than 65 apps that are categorized into the subjects of Language Arts, Math, Science, Social Studies, and general apps that can be used for all. There are plenty more educational apps out there so it is important to stay up to date.

    This is a great resource for teachers starting a 1-1 program with iPads. As someone who is interested in using the iPad in the classroom, this might be the best resource I have seen. It's no question that it isn't the iPad itself, rather the apps that are developed that are the big draw for use in education. I really like that the apps featured on this site are divided into the different subjects that they entail, even sign language! This is a resource I will use in the future if I get the chance to use an iPad in my classroom.
  • John Hubbard on 14 Nov 11
     
    This is a great resource. All of the apps that are available to teacher to use is a great plus!
