Thing 14

http://cooltoolsforschools.wikispaces.com/- This wiki is loaded with links that connect you with tools for creating things in the classroom. The links are all decribed and easy to connect to.

I loved this wiki when I saw it and thought that it would be really useful. I am just learning how to to use a lot of these tools, so it would offer lots of helpful ideas and it also is very easy to navigate. This you could intergrate into any subject area. I like that used each set of tools the links to each one are already there. That makes it fast and easy to click through which is excellent when you are pressed for time in the computer lab or classroom. Also it would be nice for students to be able to click on the link. Otherwise they are often typing the html wrong. This can be very frustrating to me.
To adapt this wiki page I would add some pages that have examples of ideas that have been done using these tools. That way you can see or the students can see what they are capable of producing.
