Lab

Mid-Course survey - A13, A14, A16, A18, A35

Free online Concept Mapping - Gliffy.com, bubbl.us

Photostory (PC only) = free simple slide/movie creation - get some sample images Haiti, or Winnipeg Chinatown, or  REC VG Volleyball.

When Youtube is blocked (eight ways around it)

Safeshare - get only the video and not all the ads, and yo can crop the video to show only what you want

Kickyoutube downloads video well. Get the yourube video you want and then add kick in front of youtube in the address bar. Choose a format (usually mp4), click on Go and then right click on download and choose Save Source.
savevid.com works very well, but it does show the most recently downloaded videos and some may be inappropriate for the classroom.

Download and use VLC, a cross-platform media player to view almost anything!! Mac, PC or Linux

A video to help students deal with hate sites like MLK.org (Thanks Alena!)

Here are some plagiarism checkers on the web: (Thanks Matt!!!)
