"Over the last six weeks of 2014 I published a series of charts comparing popular ed tech tools. Judging by the number of visits to those posts, the charts were popular. Someone asked me this week if I had put them all together in one place. I hadn't until now. In this Google Drive folder you will find ten charts comparing popular ed tech tools."

Beth Dichter's insight:
Richard Byrne (of FreeTech4Teachers) has created a new slideshow of his top picks of web tools for 2014. He states "I shared only tools that are new-to-me since last year's NCTIES conference and or have released significant enhancements in the last year." As always it is worth looking through this lengthy slideshow, which is embedded in the post and also available through Google docs so you may choose to save a copy. He notes that he will continue to add speaker notes to include "more links." Some of these tools have been mentioned in this Scoop.it but there are quite a few that are new to me that I will be checking out.

"Wideo allows you to create short, animated videos and Common Craft like videos in your web browser. Today,Wideo announced that you can now upload your own audio files into your video projects. This means that you could record a voiceover and add it to your video."
Beth Dichter's insight:
Wideo is a free online tool that allows you to create your own animation. You can use images, fonts, animations and videos available on the site or upload your own...and shre your final project! This post provides a quick look of how it works (with a short video) or you can go directly to the site: http://wideo.co/.

Beth Dichter's insight:
If you are looking for ways to use ThingLink with your students you should check out this slideshow available on Google Drive. It provides 66 (and growing) ways to use ThingLink in the classroom. Some of the suggestions are geared to teachers, and others are student oriented. ThingLink is free to educators. If students do not have an email they share a way you may add students to your account. They have recently put out an app (free) for the iPhone and iPad.
