HRACS Winter Conference 2012

We offered many new programs this year. One of my favorites is Edmodo.com. Edmodo is an online classroom. You are able to attached Word documents, videos, make quizzes, and much more. The code to get into the HRACS site is c7hva7. Give it a try and see what you think. The site has communities that you are also able to become involved in. I joined two so check it out. Another site we introduced this year is one of my old time favorites, Quizlet.com. While Quizlet is not a good test generator, it is awesome at vocabulary building. Another tool we found was Classtools.net. Classtools has tons of cool gadgets for teaching. You can download your class list into a random name generator to make sure your students are paying attention to your lesson. It also has a countdown clock which is helpful for those times when you want to give your students time to think. Finally, we also discussed the advantages of online bookmarking. I personally use Portaportal.com. My guest name is teanderson. Have fun and check out the new resources.
