#EdTech Thought

Back to School!

Share your best tips and recommendations for the start of the school year. I would like to include them in episode 43 of the podcast!

#EdTech Recommendation

Doodle.ly: A fun, free, and easy way to create and share drawings with your friends and family.

Doodle.ly is a social sketchpad for self-expression, creativity and inspiration. It’s a fast, fun and easy way to share hand-drawn pictures, sketches, doodles, notes, and scribbles with friends across social networks.

Doodle.ly aims to make communicating through hand-drawn pictures and doodles as instant and magical as when you first passed notes to your friends in homeroom. In a world gone digital, with text, links, videos and photos, hand-drawn pictures are in danger of being lost forever. Doodle.ly is working to change this through building a place for you to easily create and share doodles across media.

Great education applications could include:

illustration ice-breakers at the start of the school year
individual or group white boards during a lesson
Exit tickets for older students that share their drawings with you and their peers

Download the app on your iPhone or iPad. www.appstore.com/doodlely
