Have you ever wanted to assign a video, but not sure the students will come away with the information you want them to? Try EduCanon. Here you can import a video and assign questions for them to answer as they watch. In the end you get the report of how they scored. FREE!! http://www.educanon.com
Edmodo Apps
Edmodo has a ton of free apps (and some paid), that are great to use in the classroom.
LiveBinder
In LiveBinder, I have stored together in binders documents I have created along with sites I have found to be useful. It is easy to install an icon on your favorites bar, that will allow you to, with a click, categorize the item you found and save it to a place you can easily access it again for reference. If you sign up, let me know and I can share binders I have created on Edmodo, iPads and more.
