We believe that one of the most important challenges educators face today is to prepare kids for the world that awaits them after they leave the classroom -- those "21st century skills" you keep hearing about. We've created the free resources below to support and inspire you and your students in facing that challenge.

You have to sign up, but it is free. K-12 teachers can find lessons to help flip their classroom.

![The Power of Connecting Students on Edmodo [Video] | Distance Learning, mLearning, Digital Education, Technology | Scoop.it](https://img.scoop.it/cFEQgBlKELrPBuphcRXtjzl72eJkfbmt4t8yenImKBVvK0kTmF0xjctABnaLJIm9)
Mrs. Price hopes you’ll share the video with your network and inspire other teachers to experience the power of Edmodo for themselves. Though she considered herself technologically-challenged when she first got started, Mrs. Price now knows that Edmodo is so much more than a tool that helps teachers understand the digital language of today’s students; it also allows students to speak up for themselves and to each other.

De pedagogische factor is ook online essentieel. Soms kan online een veiliger plaats zijn dan de gewone klas..

very powerful for small group work- which would encourage students to take risks in a risk free environment over time |

In my mind, this is exactly what the future of lifelong learning looks like. We will be learning constantly throughout our careers as workers and citizens, and once young people graduate from formal institutions, much of that learning will be self-directed and unstructured. What I hope that students could take away from my Connected Course were the skill sets to participate in that kind of learning out on the open Web, and the belief that lifelong learning can be most powerful when we intentionally build networks of people to learn with us.

Since this is a goal for myself and my children---why wouldn't I have this goal as a #digileader for my fellow teachers and students? I see myself as the instructor for this "course" within the walls of my own school and beyond. Success lies w/carefully planned implementation #greatlisd

I've worked with more Learning Management Systems than most. I've touch everything on this list. Most of what I need is there, although more often than not some central authority hasn't flipped the switches I need to get to the tools I'd use.
As far as killer apps, mobile is essential. If an LMS isn't fully functional on a tablet, it's a lame duck.
