Last week the social studies teachers began this project. Today, students presented their digital posters. The teacher used a Google form to acquire the group names, link to the CheckThis, and the collaboration Google document.
View the presentation and how the Google form was used.

One week ago, the English teachers had an idea.
Learn about the terms that describe action and parts of a book or movie (setting, irony, conflict) via movie clips. Students were given the opportunity to use presentation tools such as SlideRocket, iMovie, or Pinnacle to demonstrate their knowledge. Along with these tools Skitch and iCab Mobile were used on the iPad to create slides and use movie clips on the iPad.
Today, they presented their final projects. Fortunately, I was able to view some of the projects while the students presented the information. The students did a wonderful job. I even remembered a digital tool (TubeChop) that I forgot about when a student used this resource for clipping movie clips from YouTube.

On the weekends, I send our administration examples of integration of technology from the previous week. I firmly believe that we need to share the great teaching and learning moments that occur in our district. I recently found the site Multiurl.com which allows shortening of multiple links into one link. Customization of the shortened link is also possible.
My example this week:
I believe this site (service) could be a great way for teachers who may not have a digital presence (i.e. blog or site) to send multiple links that students should use.
While you can create an account, no account is needed.
Check out Multiurl.com

The social studies team wanted a Web 2.0 tool to use on computers (not iPads) so their students could meet requirements of a project. The project allows high school students to teach fourth graders how to become U.S. citizens.
Two options were used.
CheckThis.com
Smore.com
Both services are free. Both services allow for text, video, images, and links.
Smore.com allows for slightly better configuration as far as variety of layout. CheckThis.com provides for easy login as it connects to a Google.com account. This option made it quite easy for the students to start working on their project.
Overall, each tool can provide a great service for creation projects.
To collaborate, students did need to create a Google Document for sharing resources that eventually will be placed onto their creation.
While I haven't used Checkthis.com , I have created multiple Smore.com creations for our weekly staff
