When in BA...

I love integrating technology in my teaching. Therefore, this post is about the new sites I've become familiar with in the different technology toolkits, and that I'm planning to use back in BA. 
First of all, there's Weebly.  This is a site which allows you to create your own webpage, in an easy, friendly manner. I find this site really useful, not only to use with my students, but also with colleagues or as a personal site. Secondly, I fell in love with Quizlet. There's a lot of theory that supports games and playing as effective ways of fostering learning. Yet, not many teachers make their students play. Well, I find Quizlet just perfect for making some teachers change their minds... Finally, last week I had the chance to explore Voicethread in depth. Even though I knew this site, I'd never had the chance to get to know all its potential as a collaborative tool.  
So far, these are three sites I'm looking forward to trying with my students, and I can't wait to see what we'll learn in our next technology toolkit class.
