Janet's Top 10 Tools for Learning 2011



Here is my selection of the Top 10 Tools for Learning I am submitting for Jane Hart's 2011 edition of Top 100 Tools for Learning. I have chosen the following tools and sites because I like using them for either teaching, or my professional development.

In no uncertain order, here are my choices for 2011:

  1. Twitter - I wouldn't be able to keep up with current trends and technology without it
  2. Posterous - a new blogging platform for me
  3. Slideshare - useful for keeping my presentations in one place
  4. Jing - a great tool for screen captures and making videos
  5. Powerpoint - I enjoy creating presentations with this easy to use tool
  6. Storybird - a beautiful storytelling creation site
  7. Scoop.it - an easy to use web curation site
  8. Diigo - great to keep all my bookmarks in one place
  9. Animoto - fabulous slideshows can be easily created
  10. Moodle - a versatile virtual learning platform
If you would like to vote for your Top 10 Tools of 2011, you can add yours here:
