This page holds links to a variety of interesting tools and ways to share and enhance writing. While not presentations or documents, there exist many other ways to express meaning, through comics, interactive posters, and other means.
Here you'll find things that I'm not sure what to do with. So, they're here for now. Eventually some may fall into new tabs, but we'll just call this a hodge podge of neat things to check out.
QR CODES
(or scan code!)
A QR, or Quick Response, code is a way to share a link with someone else in a visual way. It is free to generate a QR code, and a code can be used to direct students to a variety of websites, from books and book reviews, to students' own VoiceThreads and published pieces. A class could even celebrate work by displaying QR codes and sending visitors from code to code, scanning and reading or listening to each student's piece.
