    Blogs are a perfect to use for social networking, interaction, and the ability to share thoughts and achievements. For group projects, school newspapers, class websites, class discussions as well as book reviews and much more!

    This is a cool platform for those who would like to experiment with classroom blogs. I liked it for my students because unlike other platforms like Blogger and Word Press, the students do not have to have an email account to sign in.

    You may have seen this before, but I thought it would be worth it to look at the site again from the PD perspective.

Wallwisher.com: Words that stick - 0 views

  •  
    This site would be a great tool to use in the classroom (or in a library). A "wallwisher" wall allows everyone to communicate on a "wall" answering a question you have posed. Using sticky notes, those in the class answer on the virtual/visual wall. The wall I built asked the question, "what are you reading and what do you like about it so far?" Students can answer with both words and images. Therefore, it is my hope students will upload a picture of the book cover and give a quick review of the book based on what they have read so far. You can design the color/design of the wall. I found this tool to be lots of fun and it could be used in many ways in a classroom or library. Wallwisher could definitely be used to inspire collaboration and communication.
  •  
    This is an online notice board maker where you can post announcements, greetings, jokes; just about anything you would want to put on a Post It. I think this would be a great tool for students to use in a note taking assignment. This would be fun to collaborate multiple students' posts and try to combine them randomly to create a funny poem or short story.

    Resourceful site for all types of educators and leaders. The site contains lesson plans, professional development, and technology integration. Resources for teachers are extensive and cover quite a lot of material.

    This is a place where teachers can gather and share ideas. This resource includes lesson plans, information on how to integrate technology in the classroom, articles written by educational experts, web site reviews, and employment listings. I believe we can all share ideas and build upon those ideas to create lessons that are meaningful to students.
