ClassTools.net

This site is tremendous! I love all the functionality of this site. There are so many options available in this site. I especially like the games that can be created. They are so easy to create and the students would be so engaged. It would be such a great tool for remediation, reinforcement of concepts, and assessment of material. I think I will get a great deal of use out of this site.

I really liked the classtools.net site. Looking through the site, I thought the jigsaw diagram was very powerful. I could see creating a graphic organizer with it and scrambling the pieces and having students put the puzzle together. I also liked the lights out activity and could see it used as a review of sorts.
While I like the site, I don’t think I could use it in my high school classes because it feels like it is more geared toward kids. If I were to use it, I think I would have the students use the site to create lessons that they can teach the class. I let my students do a lot of teaching, and this site has many tools that can build visuals for that purpose.
