The object of The Project Management Game is to assign the best staff to particular tasks and complete your project on-time and under budget. This is definitely not Call of Duty, but it's free. Here's a more realistic PM game, but you have to purchase: http://www.sharkworldgame.nl/

Cute!

In research and and evaluation these checklists can be incredibly useful. It may be a stretch to apply them to project mgmt for instructional design but there are many links to proposal development that are thought provoking.

Tons of Agile & Scrum Project Management info

This is a pretty accessible, concise outline for using ADDIE for project management in ID. I find it interesting because there is criticism that ADDIE is not adequate for project management, but I am still not entirely sure why. This adaptation looks pretty sound.

SugarSync's file sync, online backup, and file sharing service makes it easy to stay connected. Get free, secure cloud storage for all your files -- documents, music, photos, and videos.

This is a pretty neat tool I came across the other day. It's called Quizlet, and it lets you create flashcards and other games... for Free! I like it because you could use it to send out some pre pr post training materials, (acronyms, terms, ect.)

This is great! I use Brainscape.com to put in flashcards for my Spanish students. There is an app in the app store that pairs with it called "Flashcardlet" so that you can do flashcards on your mobile. I don't know if there is android app for it, but I'm sure there is.

An organization focused on helping individuals grow their PM skills - offering learning opportunities, professional development, networking, resources, certification and other related items.

I subscribed to this podcast (it has a free option) I liked because it is short (each episode is around 30 min long) and gets directly to the point, so it helps me to understand better some concepts we discuss in our class. I listened to the interview in the Episode 266: PMO and Capitalizing on Diversity (Free) This one gave me a perspective about how to integrate diversity in PM. The other episode I listened was Episode 261: How to Identify Project Stakeholders (Free) , so I learned a little more about this confusing topic for me. I also enjoyed the British accent; I finally can catch what they are saying! I think my English skills are improving: double check!

I'm very interested in Agile project management because I think visibility is improved, and this website is one of many that enhances visibility even more. I like it because of the clean layout and the intuitive nature. You can color code each team member and see what everyone is doing, making team meetings more effective. There is a 14 day trial, so it's worth trying out for a small portion of a project.

Andi, I like this site a lot! Thanks for sharing! It looks very useful for each group project in this course. Also the introductory video gave me some ideas for our prototype : )

There is mention of another Mindjet product from a few years back already mentioned here but I thought I would at this. They have really done a lot with this and it is great for people that are visual thinkers.

I am always looking for an alternative to using dropbox with google docs with basecamp - for example. This service looks interesting and I may try it out as an alternative.

I am reading the book written by the founder of this group. It is an enjoyable read and this company also runs a helpful blog. I think it is great for people and organizations that feel challenged by having those difficult conversations.

Looks interesting. Seems like a good communication resource.

Looks like a good support system for project managers!

Website contains the latest project management articles all in one place from multiple sites. It's pretty neat!

I really like this site! So much to read.... so little time!

Web-based project and task management software for your team. Includes a variety of charts, templates and tools to monitor deadlines.

This looks like a good tool, but hard to say with only a 14 day free trial. I would like a 60 day free trial :)

This page of the AMA site is a great resource for refresher topics and new perspectives on management.
