CURATION and SHARING

Content curation platform where you can save links, videos, images, social media posts, text, and PDFs as items organized into a collection. Collections can be private or public. Add student and teacher commentary to the items—notes, instructions, feedback, etc. Create unlimited collections. Choose from three layouts. Collaborate on shared collections. Share Wakes via link or embedding on a web page.

Feed reader that aggregates your news subscriptions into one place. Instead of visiting all your favorite blogs, news sites, RSS feeds, publications, and other sources separately, Feedly will compile them in one place. Tracks read/unread status of posts. Organize your feeds into categories. Share sites with others.

Social bookmarking tool for collecting and organizing links to web pages. Save links and add keyword tags to easily retrieve later. No lost web links stored in a different browser or computer, and no more emailing yourself important links. Add a browser extension or bookmarklet to quickly add sites to your account while browsing the web. Annotate and highlight pages. Mark pages to “read later”. Set up a group to share resources and explore other public groups’ collections.

Bonus

Complete 3D satellite data on the view of the Earth. It offers tools for creating new data or layers of data, such as volcanoes and terrain, that can also be displayed. It provides the ability to pan, zoom, rotate, and tilt as you are viewing the Earth. Students can explore anywhere on Earth, measure distances, create their own projects and add points, text, and multimedia content. These projects can then be shared with others.
