 RECITE Recite has you type in a key thought or quotation and then allows you to select from a wide variety of templates that match the thought. Students can practice their design skills (another 21st century skill) while summarizing their learning. Completed creations can be emailed to the teacher, published to the web, downloaded as an image, or posted to Tumblr, Pinterest, Facebook, and Twitter. No registration or email account is required. @http://recitethis.com/ //recommended by Louis Fleming - Andrews High School - Andrews, Texas USA //  ANSWER GARDEN If your students have access to multiple devices in the classroom, whether in small groups or via a 1:1 program, then you will want to provide opportunities for them to share their ideas and answers during discussions. There are a lot of different feedback tools available, but AnswerGarden is one that is especially simple to use. The teacher or a student can create an AnswerGarden with a question that is then shared with the rest of the class via email, blog, social media, or URL. Other students can respond to the question by typing in their answers, which appear in word cloud format for everyone to see with the most frequent answers in larger text. No registration or email account is required and a free iPad app is also available. http://answergarden.ch // recommended by Louis Fleming - Andrews High School - Andrews, Texas USA //

TALKTYPER  TalkTyper may change the way your students write. It is free speech-to-text dictation software that works in any browser. Simply click the on-screen microphone and begin speaking; every word will appear. This will allow your students to focus less on their keyboarding ability and more on their ideas. What makes TalkTyper stand apart from similar programs is that it provides the ability for you to edit what is recorded before printing, emailing, or copying and pasting the completed text into another document. Again, no registration or email account is required. @https://www.talktyper.com/ // recommended by Louis Fleming - Andrews High School - Andrews, Texas USA //
