Used to demo the summarizing tool, and paraphrasing using GOOGLE translate.

"STORIES DISPLAYED ON MAPS GEO-LOCATED INTERACTIVE TIMELINES WITH A SOCIAL TWIST Watch and read thousands of fascinating timelines, or create your own. Complete with text, video and pictures to create a dynamic timeline mashup. Using myHistro, you can combine maps and timelines seamlessly into one great presentation, convert any public timeline into a personal pdf file, or export it into Google Earth format for offline storage. All completed timelines can be embedded into your blog and websites for maximum exposure. "

Gulsum mentioned that she is using an interactive timeline (http://www.tiki-toki.com/) as a web-based material to teach tenses. Very nice idea. This is a new timeline I hadn't seen before, which produces a 'mashup' of maps and a time line -- very neat idea. One idea to use with students is to get them to create a short personal history of their family.

For those of you who liked text analysis and a look into the world of corpora, you'll love this tool. Fascinating.

Easy tool to create a webquest. Basically a 'pre-packaged' wiki with a fixed WebQuest template. Very easy to use. Has some nice feature, like adding a QUIZ and a blank RUBRIC template. Also has statistics, and you can share your WebQuest with the world--and export it in a number of different ways.

Thanks to Mehmet for this link to Zunal - an automated WebQuest design tool. If you want to use this instead of GOOGLE SITES, it is okay with me.
