Create Surveys Here! - 0 views

  •  
    This web 2.0 tool has multiple possibilities. Here's just a couple I've thought of: 1) your students are doing a research project and 2) you want to connect with your students and/or students' parents. Easy, efficient, and technology based.

    Surveymonkey is a flexible, effective tool that can be used in a variety of settings. In addition to using it in the classroom and as a tool to reach out to parents, it could also be used administratively for research and strategic planning purposes.
  •  
    Surveymonkey is flexible, and easy to use. Although when using it for a kiosk station you need to pay for a subscription fee but worth all the hassle. Another substitution is google forms too.
  •  
    We have used Surveymonkey here at school, easy to build and deploy. Great tool.

    This math wiki covers a lot of mathematical material. If you have a knack for math this is a great opportunity to share your knowledge--some of the pages under "primary school mathematics" are rather sparse.

Khan Academy - 1 views

  •  
    If you haven't heard of Khan Academy I definitely think it's worth checking out. I'm under the impression that it is popular for many, many students. Who knows, maybe your students will be visiting this website that delivers free lessons on a variety of subjects! Even better, maybe it will you help create content specific knowledge.
  •  
    This website is great our students visit either the app or website on a daily basis. Its just not for math, we have students looking up science and english. Its also a great resource if you are thinking of flipping your classroom.
