FREE PLAGIARISM DETECTOR TOOLS FOR EDUCATORS
This post is about free Plagiarism tools that teachers can use to deter students from cheating on assignments, which raises the quality of work for your course. Instructors can see at a glance assignments that are original and ones that contain content copied from the Internet. I have assembled all these tools in a guide below for you to download and share.
The PowerPoint Twitter Tools prototypes are now available. Created using SAP BusinessObjects Xcelsius (but requiring only PowerPoint for Windows and Adobe Flash to run), the twitter tools allow presenters to see and react to tweets in real-time, embedded directly within their presentations, either as a ticker or refreshable comment page.
There are currently eight tools - you can easily cut and paste them into your own PowerPoint decks:
PowerPoint Twitter feedback slides
PowerPoint AutoTweet,
PowerPoint Twitter voting - bar charts and pie chart
PowerPoint Twitter ticker bar
PowerPoint Mood meter
PowerPoint Crowd meter
PowerPoint Zoom text
PowerPoint Twitter update bar
is an excellent tool for social studies projects. This tool provides a visual tool over debatable issues. When it is embedded on your site, students can take positions and fill out the map online. The embed code is located under share your aMap.

"If you are looking for a tool to backup your social media stuff (Google Docs/Sites, Twitter, Blogger, Facebook, etc.), Backupify is a pretty cool tool. Though, you need to keep in mind that the free version is currently limited to 2GB storage, so the idea of using it for backing up for example your Gmail would also probably require you to invest in the commercial version, unless your Gmail account is below 2 GB (Very unlikely!!!!). Though, the current pricing is reasonable (Pro 100 version - $4.99/month), so it might be a good idea to consider such an option if your Gmail is critical to your work, studies and life. "

This is a new European Union funded education project to help educators who find ICT confusing and difficult to access. You can also join our Community of Practice on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Web-20-ERC/317534459957
The project will provide educators with a simple and secure ICT environment to use in their work and in their classes.
The project will build a simple web site and a set of the most popular tools (Wikis, Blogs, communications, Social Networking etc.) with clear guides on:
* How to use the tools
* How they can be employed in education
The project will also look at other Web 2.0 tools that can be used to create content, share the content and communicate.

"Hello there! You were looking for something, but, unfortunately, it's no longer here.
To keep our tools and curriculum as relevant as possible, the Webmaker team has deprecated some services. Most of these services are being replaced by new and improved ones, but a few of them are not. You can read more about this on our blog."
