Teachers need to have many websites they can call upon to make their role of educator easier and time effective.
These
are some sites I have come across during my learning journey in EDN
113, Living and Learning with Technology, but also I have included some
of my personal sites that I have found to be invaluable to assist me in
my role as education support and now more recently, pre-service teacher.
Jing allows you to capture images and share them instantly with others. Jing also is an excellent way of sharing documents to allow easier collaboration amongst groups. Click on the link below, |

Diigo is another resource to assist in collaborative working. Diigo allows the user to capture an image and then store it for future reference. One of the features of Diigo allows you to view a document or page of a book, highlight a particular section and then save it in the 'cloud' ready for retrieval at a later date.
