Today's Meet is an awesome and free "backchannel" tool that has upgraded its features -- now we can control who signs in and we can close room and monitor multiple rooms from one screen. Give it a try!
The Internet Archive seeks to build a "digital library of Internet sites and other cultural artifacts in digital form." Free access to researchers, historians, scholars, the print disabled and the general public. This is a GREAT resource that every educator should know about!
This is a fun tool to use with students that is ad free and educationa-friendly. Create your own chat room and use it as an exit slip, a way to brainstorm or as a backchannel in a class learning activity.
