This web 2.0 tool is a great tool to use to communicate with parents and students via text messaging. We continually talk of the need to meet students/parents where they are at with today's most commonly used forms of communication. I think this is perfect tool to use to connect with them.

This is a great blog. I am not very familiar with wikis and I often wonder why I would use one in education. This blog lists some great ways to incorporate a school wiki. This is something that I could see myself using with my community college students and instructors.

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.
