This page is dedicated to Web 2.0 tools which we have used and how we have used or plan to use them in the future.

Ladies, please put your initials next to any additions and (try) to add in alphabetical order. It's just neater that way.

DoInk ([|www.doink.com]) JS DoInk is a site where students can create, draw, and animate their illustrations. Their work can then be posted in the DoInk community or other websites.

Edmodo ([|www.edmodo.com]) ES Edmodo is an awesome site which you can use in a similar manner to a wiki. The site enables the user to create classes (which each have their own password) and then to create discussion type activities. I've used this with my AP class for summer work and also for homework, additional practice and for posting links that are blocked by my county's very strict firewall.

Flipstack ( []) ES  Flipstack is a tool that you can use to create a flip book from a PDF. It's a fun way for the kids to change an ordinary Word document into something a little more fun and also fun for the other students to view. Skype ([|www.skype.com]) CS Skype is a great online tool that allows users to communicate with video and audio for free (or at least cheap)! Not only does Skype allow individuals to videoconference, there is also a group videoconference feature! Set up is easy and users may want to invest in a good headset with a microphone. Most laptops and desktops have built-in cameras. It's a great way to work collaboratively or for classrooms to "meet" each other from different places.

Teacher Tube ( []) ES

Teacher Tube is a great resource for videos for the classroom. The great news is that it's for teachers, so a lot of districts don't block it like they do YouTube. Toon Do ([|www.toondo.com]) ES This is a great cartoon generator which you can use to have your students practice vocabulary or grammar or just create a fun story. The kids love it!

Vocaroo ([|www.vocaroo.com]) JS Vocaroo is a very simple recording tool. There are no editing options (which could be good or bad depending on your needs).

Voki ([|www.voki.com]) SM Voki is a free online tool that allows you to create personalized speaking avatars and use them on your blog, profile, and in email messages. This is a fun tool that I have used in previous EDTC courses.

Youtube ([|www.youtube.com]) SM Youtube is a video sharing website where users can upload, share, and view videos for free.
