New Tools

One of my "new" favorite tools is voki.  I used this tool to create an introduction to databases for students in my library.   "Hey, that looks like you!" Showing up may be half the battle, getting them to pay attention to your content is essential for learning.

I know other people may already use this tool regularly but I found it to be very easy and a real attention getter for my students so I wanted to be sure that other educators reading this blog will be able to integrate it into their content areas.

In case you haven't found their site, 4teachers.org offers free generators for quizzes and rubrics along with a host of other online content.  Did I mention that these tools are free?

Short post, but good things need to be shared!
