Jones 7 New Things: Wufoo

I created an order form for a T-Shirt. At our school we like to have matching T-shirts for our casual days or pep-rallies. By providing a t-shirt form it would be a lot easier for the order to go through technology rather than someone collecting the information and getting it to the producer. Wufoo is a great place for surveys, invitations, order forms, etc. The only down fault is you can only produce three forms before purchasing Wufoo. I think people can use this for any reason business or personal.

Jones 7 New Things: Kyolo


Kyolo was very easy and fun. I could see myself sharing fun pictures with my family and friends.

Jones 7 New Things: Widgetbox

Wow who knew widgets are SO much FUN!! I love to bowl I have bowled on leagues for almost all of my life. I added the Widget bowling at the bottom of my blog. I also added a Monkey named Pinky. I have always wondered what it would be like to raise a monkey. I do not know how well widgets would be used for instructional learning or selected by students. But they are a great way to personalize a blog page. I wonder if there is a place like blogging for students. I will have to check into that. Thanks for a great resource of widgets!

Jones 7 New Things: Moshi Monster

I too found Moshi Monster to be a great responsible learning environment for students. I did not get a chance to incorporate it into my classroom this year, but I hope to next year. I feel it gives everyone the same opportunity to have a "cool and fun" monster and to care of it responsibly and respectfully. I am not sure what standard it would cover yet, but I do hope to allow my students the opportunity to view and give me feedback about it.

Jones 7 New Things: Which Date Works

Which date works is a great for planning any event. I sent out a reminder about an In-Service some girls from worked signed up for on June 15. It was very quick and easy. You can even get your address book from other sites you might have it located on. I could see Which Date Works being used to schedule team meetings, committee meetings, etc. I really liked the layout and how quick and user friendly the site was. Good resource for planning!
