What a great way to customize the reading assignments and resources for students in our online courses. This seems like it could also save money on textbook costs for our students.

Will great free courses drive down applications to places like Stanford? That's doubtful. It's more likely that these offerings will help build a stronger university brand. Writing about the success of a Stanford online computer science course in the Wall Street Journal, Holly Finn implies that free Web-based education is about to or should replace elite universities: It's a thrilling collegiate coup.

This was really interesting...there are so many free online courses. The issue seems to be quality and accreditation.

I am currently enrolled in both the Tech Tools course and the Instructional Design Course. This web page about where the different tech tools fit in a "Blooms Taxonomy" scheme is a great resource for both classes.

This is terrific. I am going to show it to the teachers at my school. It will help all of us think more clearly about all those tools.

This report defines the google generation and discusses how students and researchers, search for the information they need. While not specifically a techtools article, it is important for instructors to understand students may not have the information literacy skills that we think they have!

Excellent website for tools for teachers - 2 views

Check out http://www.4teachers.org/ that contains numerous tools for teachers. Although intended for K-12 teachers, I think a lot of the tools can be used for online facilitation at higher levels.

I was referred to this product by a colleague and it is really easy to use. I use it to record video solutions for my math review. Jing also works with Camtasia, which allows you to edit your Jing videos, as well as convert them into other media types such as mp4.
