20 of the best web tools to enrich classroom experiences

Among thousands of emerging online learning resources, which are the most engaging? Few educators have time to find those that engage and allow students’ creative content expression while meeting core area standards. Steve Dembo and Adam Bellow, recognized innovative educators, take away the guesswork with Untangling the Web.

Discover 20 free websites and tools—flexible enough for kindergarten through high school use—and learn how to leverage technology to transform classroom experiences. More than a “how-to” guide, you’ll receive access to:

  • A web site with videos for richer, in-depth exploration.
  • An online community where you can connect and collaborate with educators.
  • Advice, tips, tricks, and bite-sized anecdotes from ed tech leaders.

Add these 20 tools to your teaching tool kit and you’ll energize student learning, foster collaboration, and infuse creativity into your classroom!

“Steve Dembo and Adam Bellow have created a clear and deeply helpful guide to help teachers invigorate their classes by having students create, curate, and collaborate using the web.”
—Chris Lehmann, Founding Principal
Science Leadership Academy, Philadelphia, PA

It not only introduces how to use these tools, but also provides information/strategies on how these tools can be integrated into classroom teaching. I particularly like "Tweet Tweet" callout boxes.
