The following sites from the Learnist open up opportunities for 24/7 collaboration. Cover image from Free Digital Images Net I uncovered a site called Learnist http://learni.st/category/featured which integrates social media features from Pinterest, Twitter, and other educational sites into an interactive learning community. Join the site at no cost. I created my first board on study & critical thinking skills. Feel free to share these with your students. http://learni.st/users/355247/boards/49683-secondary-study-critical-thinking-skills Students will grasp academic concept and comprehend the reading through annotation.

Two THMS educators lit the spark for me to undertake the task of creating a Glog with 50+ free online resources for secondary educators. Please let me know if these are helpful. Add any other suggestions so to expand the display Copyright concerns are a legitimate when it comes to downloading online images for class multimedia presentations. In general, students are protected in using photos for educational purposes. That becomes a different issue when it comes to posting them on a personal website. I have embeded free digital resources for you to use. It's essential to cite the sources of the image regardless of what you select. Since the online resources for the newly adapted Common CORE keep growing and growing, I decided to change this section of my webpage to an educational links listing to a blog page. I designated a section of the blog to my Pinterest and Scoop It Common Core Collection. A few more will be added as necessary.
