EDTC600summer13 mathematics

    This software is a game-based program that works on many areas in mathematics. the targeted grade levels are 1-5. I have used the software, and I found myself on it longer than expected. for the most part, I liked how the software is designed. I appreciate the gaming aspect of the software. It doesn't make you feel like you're just doing math work to do. I believe that the only thing that i wasn't to big on was that it doesn't really separate the different grade levels. They do breakdown the different math areas. Overall I would recommend this software.

    If you use rubrics in your classroom but hate starting from scratch, this is the the place for you! Sign up for free and search by keyword for rubrics in the specific skill or content area you are grading. Then edit and save! You can even put a link to your rubric on the assignment directions, saving paper and trees! This is a link to a rubric I recently created, but you can get to the home page from here.

    This looks great - I am always looking for help with rubrics. Check out Kathy Schrok's guide too: http://www.schrockguide.net/assessment-and-rubrics.html

    I really like this! I love that you can embed the link to the rubric. This would be very helpful with a WebQuest or Scavenger Hunt lesson. I have used Rubistar before. It is similar, but I think this site offers more options. http://rubistar.4teachers.org/

    This is a resource for teachers who are not sure or need help organizing a proper rubric for assessing student work that is created with technology. I like how the site is organized; it is very user friendly. As noted by Edtechteacher.org, as time progresses, students will become more and more capable of using different technology platforms. Therefore, teacheres must be prepared to grade it.

    Questia is a library research tool for students to assist them in writing research papers.  Since most students do not have easy access to databases with more reliable sources, Questia provides students with tools to improve their research skills.  The site also provides students with tutorials to help them improve their writing and researching.  I have begun to implement some resources to help my high schools students improve their research skills, which is an area they often struggle in.  This seems to be the most promising tool for achieving that goal.

    I am going to check this out. Thanks Jared - I teach research writing and am always looking for ways to help my learners to organise themselves and ways for me to make the process clearer.

    Quia is a site that allows teachers to access template tools for quizzes and other assignments, and students can access and take these assessments online.  This can be used in a variety of ways, including formal assessments and test preparation.  There are also shared activities teachers can access, which are well-organized by category.

    This site is useful for elementary and middle school teachers who want to enhance their math curriculum by using interactive learning games. The site is organized by grade level and content, so teachers can easily assign particular games for the students to play. Teachers can set score goals for students to ensure they master a topic.

    This is a great website for science videos, photographs and information for students and teachers to go through to find information. I love many of the videos you can look through to help make a lesson more concrete for students. However the videos are many and great they always start with advertisements which I do not like and think it takes away from the video. However if you look at the Kid version of National Geographic I did find they did not have advertisements before the video begins.

    This is an online platform for educators and students with the technology to create GLOGS - online multimedia posters - with text, photos, videos, graphics, sounds, drawings, data attachments and more. This would allow students to display knowledge and skills to create multimedia projects. It allows students to use animations, web cams, audio, attachments and blogs in the creation of their projects. It also has a feature that allows students to share their work with particular individuals or social networks. A subscription to this tool is as cheap as $10 for a whole year. They have other levels for pricing as well.

    Written by a kid, this website provides information about space for elementary age students in kid-friendly language. This site would be useful as one of several sources for elementary research about space. I like the design of the site, the large font size, and that the information is broken into bullets within each topic. I do not like that the site has ads, but there are not as many as on some other "kid" sites.

    Julia, This is a great site. It works well with your scavenger hunt and it has a lot of information. Thanks for sharing a site I will use in my own classroom.

    This resource is appropriate for all grade levels, as it contains a variety of routines that can be applied to a wide range of content. There are routines that address most of the different levels of Bloom's Taxonomy, so it is easy to find one to fit your needs. I haven't used the resource yet myself, but certainly will in the future. In addition, the Digital Toolkit provides links to dozens of other digital tools and breaks down their uses in education. This is a great place to find other educational technology.

    I love this- thanks for sharing! The digital toolkit is a gold mine of resources. I particularly like how it gives additional information beyond just the link. I also like the role cards. Since I have trouble with students working in groups, this could be a fun way to assign jobs and attempt to keep things on track!

    Jared, Loved this site! I especially liked the thinking routine section. I enjoyed how direct and to the point it was. Thanks for sharing.

    Using this interactive game, students have to use the right amount of heat/light and water to help their plant grow. This is great to use if you don't have the time to actually plant something in the classroom!

    This is neat! I always do a unit on plants during spring. This would be a great tool to use during the unit!
