Trello


While searching for things on twitter tonight I found this site called Trello (https://trello.com/). It is a to do list program. The interesting thing is you can share and collaborate on things on a to do list.

And just and FYI it does work on the ipad or a desktop.

You can have more than one list, like I could have a classroom list, non-work list and a work order list. The advantage of the work order list would be to share it with others. Then people could see what I am working on and know I did not loose their request.

Socrative

http://www.socrative.com/ Socrative is a web based tool that can be used, with desktops, laptops, mobile devices or iPads. I have tried to provide tools this week that could be used by all classrooms. This is like using clickers but with a computer or mobile device. The teacher can set up the quiz ahead of time or  ask questions on the fly. There is a site for teachers and a site for students. I will add the teacher site under teacher links and the student link on student on the school website. (http://pvmiddle.usd259.org/)

If you get a chance participate in the SimpleK-12 webinars tomorrow.
