Audiopal - This one I got from a blogger named Porter Palmer. Her post is, "Favorite Things:Audiopal. Thanks Porter! This is so cool! As soon as I found it, as with most Web 2.0 tools, I put it to use. It's a FREE website audio player. Here's what attracted me, it's free, you can embed it, I can record by phone (which I did), mic, MP3 upload, or text to speech. Check it out!
ClassDojo - This site was shared in an Edmodo community. As a matter of fact ClassDojo has their own community within Edmodo. I asked one of the creators why I had never heard of it, he said they were pretty new. Well, the word is out, people are all " aTwitter" (get it?) about it! In a nutshell, class management that is simple and fun! With this site, you can award and reward behavior right away! You have to see it in order to understand how it works, but it's worth taking a look!
TypeWith.me A tweet from HPTeach Exchange led me to this one. It was posted on the Teacher Experience Exchange website. Another resource I did not know existed. TypeWithme provides real time collaboration on a document , has chat, can be exported as a document of your choice, a slider shows revisions that have been made, no account or sign up required. Here is a simple tutorial to help you understand how it works.
TubeChop - I checked it out yesterday after seeing it mentioned in a tweet, again, from HPTeachExchange. It's just what it says, it chops videos in order to enable you to show the part of the video you choose. If you're interested, watch this tutorial.
A number of Teacher Resource sites have also been brought to my attention. I don't think we can ever have too many places where we can get new ideas. TeacherTime123, TeacherCast.net, and USATodayEducation.
If you have "discovered" anything new, do us a favor and post the link. Thanks!
