In need of some new web 2.0 tools? Check out this site! Plus, the website has even more than just that--check out the resources they have for administrators, teachers, parents, and students.

I have came across this resource before as well and seemed to really enjoy it. I really enjoyed how it incorporated mobile tools, community tools, as well as presentation tools. I feel this is a very beneficial tool in which I could use in my future classroom. Another thing that I really enjoyed about this resource was the fact that it not only targeted teachers, but also included admins, parents, and students as you mentioned. Great find!

I have explored this site before. It is a good one, in my opinion! It has many great resources for teachers and students. I really like how it has specific links to all Web 2.0 tools. This would be very efficient for busy teachers who need resources about technology and how to incorporate it into lessons. I have not come across any other site that highlights all the major components of Web 2.0 tools.

Great wiki that provides ideas on evaluating a web site. This could be used at any educational level. Includes PowerPoints, worksheets, and videos to choose from. A great starting point for teaching how to effectively evaluate web sites.

This blog post is from a woman who decided to make her own list of the most useful web 2.0 tools in the Elementary School Setting. If you want to see a list made from a teacher herself, this will give you better insight on which tools work the best!

As an Elementary Ed major I am grateful for this list of Web 2.0 applications that has the elementary classroom in mind. The tools are fitting for both teachers and students-teachers can modernize their teaching by integrating and including technology in every day lessons and communication, and students use the tools to complete assignments. I was excited to see that I only recognize 3 of the 10 resources on the list; it reminds me that there are so many apps and tools out there! Thanks for a link to great tools.

Collaborize Classroom is an online Web2.0 tool that allows teachers to facilitate and create distributed learning communities for their classes.  This is a forum for students to blog on questions from class and extend their learning beyond the classroom.

Hmmm, have never heard of this before, but I like the look of it! I think it's great that a site like this can offer a UDL twist to online work for students, while also cutting down on grading time for the teacher. As a TA this semester, I have finally seen firsthand the incredible amount of time that goes into grading! I never understood why teachers hated it so much, but...I do now! I'm sure most web 2.0 classroom discussion tools have this sort of tracking feature for grading purposes (like ELearning here at UNI, for example). I love that this is a free tool! I do wonder how successfully students would utilize threaded discussion or other online learning environments such as this one in K-6 environments. I think it would be fun to experiment with and perhaps do some serious research and publishing on the results of such an experiment. All about being a teacher-researcher, and this is certainly something I could see myself trying to bring into my own classroom, especially if I was ever teaching in a flipped classroom environment...

I like the setup of Collaborize Classroom and definitely see the advantages of using it in the classroom. Unfortunately, I think our students are overwhelmed with new LMS systems, web 2.0 tools, and websites that they would probably not be very receptive to this site. If CC was easily integrated into a LMS interface, then I would consider using it, but at this point I will keep it on my radar for future use.

This is a website that discusses different web 2.0 tools that are effective in the classroom of k-12

Excellent Livebinder for finding just the right tool. Web 2.0 resources for photo, video, audio, digital storytelling, broadcasting, visualization, writing, drawing, blogging, polling, avatars and much more.

I love LiveBinder and think this will be a great way to connect to all types of tools. Thank you for posting this resource, Marija.

I love this LiveBinder. I also enjoy finding new tools and this one is great. Thanks for sharing.

Jing is a great web 2.0 tool for sharing your screen and recording objects for students when they are absent. There is also screencast, quicktime, or even Camtasia Studio.

Jing is an awesome tool and I have used this tool many times sense I learned of its existence two years ago.

This wiki holds an enormous amount of information pertaining to 21st century learning, learning styles, Bloom's taxonomy, learning styles, Web 2.0 tools, and more. I have only begun to view all of the pages of this wiki. I really like the starter sheets and rubrics for Bloom's digital taxonomy. K-12 or higher ed.

This website is about finding which web 2.0 tool is best for you and what you could incorporate in your classroom. What to use, and what to let your students use.

This resource gives you 10 excellent web tools that you can incorporate into your classroom. Some of them are fairly familiar but others may not be. This site describes each of the tools to give you some information about them so you are not completely lost. This list is worth keeping around!

Interesting list of apps, but it was a great beginning list for sure. I don't see the comment from Samir here so it is hard to disagree or agree, but I do personally believe that some of these tools can be used in our classrooms. I can totally see and have had students use Animoto and a few of the other tools in the classroom before. This is mainly a teacher tool because it provides a link to the resource and then provides a description. There are many sites out there that boast a similar idea, but this one comes from a credible source and is well done overall.

This is a nice blog, applicable mainly for elementary but really ideas for any age. This particular blog lists some great Web 2.0 tools that would be useful for educators.

Ashley, Great article that states many great ideas for educators. We are always looking to new and unique ways to bring different things into the classroom. This is a great source to help spread the word of things that work well for others that may for you. We are also looking to throw away things that don't and use new things that may - each situation is different and unique. Thanks for sharing this site
