      Titan pad is very interesting - but will only record up to the first 16 people as unique colors.  One way to make sure everyone is participating is to group them and watch as the conversations are color coded according to groups!

      If you are going to use a screencasting software - an easy one to use is screen-cast-o-matic.  It will give you an .mp4 file that can be easily uploaded to YouTube.  The free version of Jing gives you a .swf file and that has to be converted before loading to YouTube.  Make sure you test the software before you invest time in recording.

    OK--I know I am a little late to this rodeo...but I LOVE BADGES! I think it is the overachieving Girl Scout that is coming out in me (I had to have 2 sashes because I earned so many GS badges when I was a little girl!). Just set up badges for math and science for the first quarter to coordinate with the main learning objectives. Hopefully this will be a new encourager for the kids.

    Straightforward, simple explanation of Diigo benefits for students. According to one of the comments, students can highlight specific information from a site as opposed to just bookmarking an entire page. I like that idea for students who are overwhelmed by info or forget what parts they found useful.

      Love this! If my students are working on something online, they constantly email links back and forth to themselves. This is such an easy way for students to share links and work together without trying to figure out group emails- it can be a lot for a 10 year old!
