5 Free and Easy Sites

Here are 5 sites that you might want to check out:

http://www.classtools.net/- This site has a variety of templates for teachers and students to use.  It has a timer and a name selector, a venn diagram, a fishbone diagram, games, and other features.  It is free and easy to use.  All of your creations can be embedded or linked.

http://www.vocaroo.com/- This is a very easy site to create podcasts.  You can record your voice for as long as you want and then link or embed the recording.  There are a lot of podcasting tools but, this one is the most simple one that I have seen.

http://www.authorstream.com/- This is a program where you can upload powerpoint presentations so that students can access them.  The uploaded version keeps all of the features of the orginal version.  They can also be link or embedded.

http://www.jaycut.com/- This is a movie making program that is completely online.  You don't have to download anything.  It is similar to moviemaker and your movies can be linked, embedded, or uploaded to youtube.

http://www.litesum.com/- This is a site that creates a more simple version of a wikipedia entry.  All you have to do is enter a topic and it will give you a short summary of a wikipedia article.  This is great for students who have a hard time navigating or reading longer articles.
