At the recent IK12 Educator Day, there were 16 companies that tried and represented themselves to show that they belong in this highly competitive market. A few stood out to me, actually 13 of the 16 stood out.
Brightloop: a mass student observation tool that puts Confer to shame, and one of the many great qualities of Brightloop is that it is FREE!!
Chesscademy: A fun and easy way to learn chess
Educents: a place to buy the things you are already planning on buying for your classroom, but this way you can pay up to 90% less.
Edusight: smart, simple, gradebook!!
Mathchat: math collaboration via mobile device
Picolab: the tool Robert is using for our meetings!
Readworks: Have a book and need a lesson to go with it? Perfect site! Want to have the text and a related article handy? Perfect site! FREE, and non profit!
Smartestk12: Make any test, paper or not, managed through web browser. Edit, create, get result live!
Tickle: Scratch but BETTER!
Trinket: Take coding and apply it to instruction
