mobiSiteGalore is a site where anyone can create a web page that is optimized for mobile devices (any mobile device), and is really easy to use. It's a fantastic tool that can be used to post lecture notes, or other activities online for students to use to suplement their learning.
mobiSiteGalore can be used for teachers to put an electronic copy of an assignment online that students can access from any place. It would be a great way to insure that if students lose their assignments or worksheets, that they have an electronic copy available to them.
