~Resources~

I just love finding little technology treasures! Since I have been able to find so many educational resources. The first section will be educational resources and the subsequent section will be Mac resources. This section is my contribution on how to cre8tively express ones self through customization of you Mac! Now, I have spent an abhorrent amount of time on Mac researching software applications and auxiliary tools to maximize my Mac into the perfect CRE8TIV machine. I am a one-of-a-kind person…therefore I will share, but I have to keep just a few things under my cre8tiv cap to keep the folks guessing. Relish in all that I am about to unload on you!

1. iQuiz :The most bombful find of the year: iQuiz Maker

2. 11 Mystics: This website has awesome iWeb templates and some are free. She also provides free iWeb imagery and a myriad of wonderful tutorials: 11 Mystics

3. PBwiki: A wonderful site where educators can build their own class wikis for free (you can incur costs if you choose to up the storage)!

4. ISTE
Our children need to know the NETS standards. These should be integrated into their curriculum just like State Standards. They break down what a child should know for each grade.

5. TUTOROM
OK ya’ll know what my favorite work is, “BOMBFUL”! Well, Tutorom is definitely the epitome of bombfulness! This site allows you to create your own course…just like (almost) Blackboard and this mug is FFFFRRRRRREEEEEEE (my other fav word!)

6. DIGICATION: This site allows students and teachers to create their own FREE electronic portfolio!

 

7. JODIX: FREE iPod Converter

 

8. APPLE LEARNING INTERCHANGE: Great for lesson plans, examples of iLife integration, etc.

 

9. HANDBRAKE: FREE DVD to iPod Converter

 

10. TUTOROM
