I love going to educational technology conferences, especially the OETC (Ohio). I am always impressed with the amount of teachers that attend the conference each year. If each teacher just took away one new tool to implement into their classroom, well then we would all be one step closer to meeting the needs of the 21st Century Learner. Here are just a few of the web based tools that I plan to implement into my blended learning classrooms of over the next couple of weeks.
 | Timeline JS is unique because it works with Google Spreadsheets. Students can collaborate together on inputting data, finding formation, and designing the timeline. Easy to use and no username or password needed. Just Google Docs. |
| Pixabay is a free picture resource to share out with your students. Pixabay allows the students to search and look for images that they can use for their next project or presentation for any subject area. |  |
 | How many cloud tools do your students use? Instead of teaching them just the platform that you love, let them choose what platform works best for their needs. By using MultCloud, you can transfer all of your files into one location without having to sign into each account. Now the students are in control to their data! |
 Students are creative, let them use their creativity to create their next story. Check out Things To Think About, an app created by students for students. |  Let students create their own stories based on If Then Statements. With Twine, the creativity of the story lies in the reader. Where the story leads them all depends on the destinations or event that they choose throughout the story. |
A picture is worth a thousand words. Let the students use Clarisketch to take a picture of your notes so they can create a verbal comment or draw on the notes to use for a study guide. Fantastic tool for collaboration, communication, critical thinking, and creativity.
Why do students have to work on their homework by themselves? By using Stoodle, students can work together projects together through a whiteboard app. The students can record their session, and use the homework as way to collaborate with other students their classroom or from around the world.
 | Lapse It: A web based and IOS app that allows devices to take pictures in interval timeframes. Fantastic tool for science experiments class projects, or social observations. |
