Zamzar! Only one of the coolest sites ever! I love this, why didn't I know this was here. I love that I can do a quick pdf conversion too, in both directions!!! love it! There are so many things I could do with the mp3 feature too. I showed it to some of our specialists and they loved it. |

Google Calendar
I love Google Calendar. My wife and I share two different work/school calendars so we always know who has what and when. The fact that it also ties in with my Iphone is just a life saver. I also have my sharing set so I get the updates from the elementary school as well. I really love how events are places automatically into my calendar when I accept things from my group leaders, principal, etc.
Goo.gl - the short story
https://goo.gl/SKZW6W Should be a document for framework of instructional planning. Yup, just tried it and it works! I set up link pages using my web page so url's are never an issue. I can see though that this would be huge for sending something for parents to log in to. Especially if it was not a hot link and they had to type it in. Considering that the original was
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WIgKx8eaXr-EUC_-ILd9Lke9cSWMBpoah1gfstlWE50/edit
That is a pretty big change! Another big plus I learned is that you can hotlink your docs. I never knew this. I can think of a bunch of applications for this little trick.

Evernote I thought perhaps I could use evernote but the more I looked at it, the more I thought Google Docs covers most of what it does. I am still considering it though
Live Binder
Really cool! I choose two binders that caught my attention. The first one is a binder about the New 5th Grade Science. http://www.livebinders.com/play/play?id=1179154 I am head of the STEAM fair and always looking for new information. This binder has some really great information. I just noticed that there is a section for education and it has an amazing number of binders in it for science/stem. http://www.livebinders.com/shelf/search?search=&terms=Science&type=3 I just linked the science are itself because there are so many in it I am looking at. http://www.livebinders.com/shelf/search?search=&terms=STEM&type=3 is another section with nothing but STEM binders.
Conclusion
These are definitely all being added to my Teacher Tools website. There are awesome resources here! I want to put together a live binder for a unit recourse like my Native American or something in that line. Live binder is a great way to modify the way I present my information and students find it. (SMAR) ISTE 1a, 2a because it presents and customizes learning experiences. It will also show that I have tech expertise ISTE 3a. Building a Binder parents can visit about my classroom or a lesson their child is working on ISTE 3b,c.
