3. ALTEC

Rubistar: This was really cool. I wish I had known about this earlier – I used a ton of rubrics in some of my other classes!
AssignADay: This would be cool as long as you had enough computers for each student. It wouldn’t work very well if there were only 5 computers per classroom and all the students needed to get on to see what their next assignment was.
CasaNotes: The best part about this is the Spanish/English feature. This would be a really great way to send notes home to parents who didn’t speak English, rather than having someone translate the letter for you.
Edlines: Couldn’t find this one.
Kids’Vid: This would be really cool. In one of my internships, the teacher had them do projects and then videotaped them. This would be a great way to have them videotape themselves!
NoteStar: I thought the teacher’s side of this would be helpful. Being able to check sources, send notes to students, and track their progress would be really helpful.
Project Based Learning: This would be useful to science teachers who have checklists that the students must follow in order to perform an experiment.
