Cool Ideas from Cool Tools

These are some interesting ideas from the blogs of the K12 educators who are participating in the Cool Tools for School workshop

Thing 01 Blogging

"the middle school librarian and I have a joint STEM program. She has something called, Maker Monday. What she does with the middle school students that day is pre-packaged and brought over to the elementary school the next day where middle school students assist the elementary students with the project. It would be nice to keep a blog about this so that we can see a history of the projects and share it with the community. It will also be handy in remembering what we did for the next year!"

Thing 2: Photo Fun

After playing around with all of the features, I can definitely see why students love this App. It is a lot of fun! Like all Apps, I needed to think about my purpose, which was to share what is happening over the course of the day in the library without sending multiple postings in one day. For that reason I think that the stories feature is going to be the most useful tool for me. It will allow for me to post pictures all day long without having to stop and take time to carefully think about my wording in a post, which I need to do with bothTwitter and Facebook.
