Kerpoof

 * How to Use Kerpoof and Kerpoof Educator Account Information
 * Kerpoof is an interactive, creative website that allows students to create original drawings, cards, stories, cartoons, and animated videos! The site is FREE but does have paid memberships (starting at $4.95 a month) that provide additional services.
 * Students can use Kerpoof without having an account. The account is only necessary when creating more involved projects such as a Kerpoof Movie or Kerpoof Story. Students using Kerpoof can create and print products in a short class/center time using the "Make a Picture", "Make a Card", "Make a Drawing", or "Drawing" tools.

Kerpoof is very secure. Students can show their work or keep it private. The examples below were captured using Jing to make them simpler to find for this presentation.

**Wikispaces -** www.wikispaces.com

 * Wikis, like the ones created at Wikispaces, are websites that are easily created and saturated with multimedia. The best part is that they are collaborative in nature. A team of people can work to create and post information. Your wiki can be wide open to allow any visitor to access and edit the content, or limited to only invited members.
 * Examples
 * RMS102 wiki - Teacher created wiki to manage the classroom.[[image:RMS102wiki.jpg width="706" height="369"]]

Delicious

 * Delicious is a website and service that allows your bookmarks to live in more than just one computer and browser. They are kept online so you have access to your favorite sites no matter where you are. In addition, your bookmarks are visible to anyone else. Sharing and seeing others' shared bookmarks is incredibly easy. It also makes searching much smarter. Instead of searching the whole web, you can simply search the websites that other delicious users have marked as their favorites.
 * Your bookmarks[[image:Delicious-ChrisBookmarks.jpg width="742" height="406"]]
 * Each tag becomes a folder/webpage. Bookmarks that share a tag appear on the same page. Make one of your tagged pages your student computer's homepage and anytime you add a bookmark with that tag, it shows on their homepage.[[image:Delicious-TaggedBookmarks.jpg width="694" height="326"]]
