Wordle is a fun website, but I'm not sure how I would use it in my classroom.

Creating the comics, though, would be a great way for students to show their learning in a concise manner.  It takes great effort to create a whole story or lesson within just a few frames.  Each table could have a computer and need to create a comic to teach others what they have learned.

I love the form tool.  It is so easy to create exams that can be easily shared with my team.  I also love using Googledocs.  This has been a useful tool when working with a teacher on another campus and also in college.

Tool #3

I was very surprised to find that there are so many sites available for us to use that are safe from copyright infringement.  This makes it so much easier for us and our students to add videos and pictures, without breaking copyright laws.  It would be a great idea to provide students with a page linking them to these sites to use.

As for the use of Dropbox, our campus uses Googledocs and I find that this works very well with our students as well.

I would use this video for journaling purposes.  I would have the students discuss how decisions that they make now can affect them negatively for the rest of their lives.
