VIDEO TECH!
COOL VIDEO, BRO: Now for a little everyday science: A sweet collection of free "Science Take" videos for your classroom, created by the New York Times. Each video explains the science behind some cool idiosyncrasy of everyday life. We love this one: "The Physics of Droplets."
S'Cools Tools
Free! If you're looking for a way to collect and review student assignments electronically, here's an idea. The Showbie app, available on for iOS, allows you to give assignments, receive student work, and add written, drawn or recorded comments directly onto them. Here's to easing up your classroom workflow!
Free! Do you use online texts and videos in your classroom? With DocentEDU, you can tailor sites from the web for your own lessons, by adding comments, highlighting, videos, maps, graphics, and questions.
