Useful+Links

=Useful Links=

Searching for Internet resources or good articles for class is a great idea. It's also a great way to eat up many hours by sitting in front of a computer. Time is one commodity we all need. This page is for sharing links you've found. Save other people the time by sharing what you have and, you'll save some time by finding something new while you're at it.

[|http://www.storyjumper.com] StoryJumper lets you create a children's book online and share it with others. If you like, you can also order a hard copy of the book (though it costs around $25). The basic version is free and it is free to share online. Privacy can be maintained through allowing only authorized people to see the book. If you want to teach creative writing and want to integrate digital literacy, this site might work for you.

[|http://www.flipsnack.com] Flipsnack lets you create your own flipbook online. You can add pictures and text to create your own online flip book. As with other sites, the free version is good, but there are options to pay if you want. Compare the free and paid versions here.

GoToMyPC--[]

This useful little program lets you access your computer remotely. Did you save something on your work computer at school and need to access it? Use this program! It does cost $9.95/month for this service. But, if you need it, it's great.

[|Clean Print]--Google Chrome Add-on

Need to print, but also want to reduce the amount of environmental waste? Use the Clean Print Add-on for Google Chrome. You can adjust the text size and text brightness to reduce the amount of ink you use. You can also remove images or whole chunks of text. It doesn't work on every site, but I've found it useful for articles.
