Product blurb: Looking for fast and easy mailing lists? Get stylish, effective results in 5 minutes or less. Personal experience: I have found these posters to be great for interactive review materials and enrichment. It's a quick way to organize anything you can post using Google Docs (so Google Forms (quizzes), Slides, etc...), websites, images, YouTube videos, etc... and the first 5 or so posters are free. The best part is it is very user-friendly. I highly recommend trying it out!

There are benefits to newsrooms using solutions-based journalism, but it is not a cure-all for audience engagement.

I like this site to share with my students because they learn about new ways to learn about the new happening in major fields. My course is a research course, and I want my students to explore more things in there field. What ever it is that they want to be, this will give them an opportunity to learn about the new trends.

Create custom posters, flyers and social media graphics. Huge selection of templates, easy to use tools. Free downloads and quality prints. I like this site because I often like to be creative in my classroom and I like to create poster are graphical images to impress my students.

When it comes to trying something new or looking into more tools. I believe I would like to do more research to see what other online instructors are doing. In this case, I found a great website called, eLearning Industry: www.elearningindustry.com. Here I can find articles written by online teaching professionals and for online teaching professionals. Also, the website is easy to navigate and always updated.

Great easy to use.

You can develop your own questions, use their test bank, or import your existing quizzes. You can select the order of the questions, indicate scores for passing, will show you their score at the completion of the quiz and reveal the correct answer to the questions. Very easy to follow. Almost no learning curve. I would definitely use this in an online class to assess students understanding of concepts covered. I would offer it either as a review or as a quiz itself.

This was a really nice resource about flipping classrooms I found. There may be some bias as this is what I am primarily interested in,

Social media permeates today's society with millions of us engrossed, some would argue to the point of unhealthy addiction, in the latest happenings via apps such as Facebook and Twitter.

You'll feel like a superhero. The above comments are from Padlet's hype...but I recently learned about this tool for collaboration at a conference. It seems to be a wall where you can collaboratively post things. You do not need to sign up for an account to use it. From the little I've used it, it seems worth exploring. Lisa

A colleague used this tool in a workshop and I thought it was great! I'm eager to embed this into my online courses.

Google Classroom. Do you use it? What part do you find the most useful?

CourseSites by Blackboard is a free learning management system for K12 and Higher Ed Instructors enabling blended & eLearning. I have used this tool a few times before. This is great because it is exactly like BlackBoard. With CourseSites you can do trial and error, and it's ok because students will not see it. Also, CourseSites allow you to add students, if you do not have BlackBoard or any other online learning site that your campus offers.

I recently started using BOX at work, and the collaboration that it allows is very powerful. I now see that some educational institutions are using it for this as well. If you have used it in an educational setting, I would like to hear about your experiences. Thanks,
