Best-in-Class Resources–Last Chance to Vote

Last Change to vote for your favorite Tech Ed Tool!

Every year, I review a large number of websites, apps, and resources that help educators blend technology into their classrooms. I get lots of feedback from readers sharing their experiences, asking questions, and clicking through to see if a particular tool will serve their needs.

But, I often don’t hear how the product worked in the fullness of time.

Starting last year, I sought out your opinions:

  • how dependable is it
  • how versatile is it for time-strapped teachers
  • does it differentiate for the varied needs of students and teacher
  • do you like it (subjective, but there you have it)
  • how did it work when exposed to your students
  • was it easy to use and intuitive to learn
  • did it fulfill promises and expectations
  • has it become a beloved tool in your classes or a failed experiment

I’ve categorized the tech ed tools I reviewed and narrowed the list down to the four-five I thought most relevant, that presented a fresh approach to topics. Now I need your help.

Please vote for your favorite. You can vote for up to two per category. Winners will get the Best-in-Class award; runners-up with get an Honorable Mention. If a tool isn’t familiar, no worries. Just ignore it and move on. This isn’t a competition based on volume of users where Kahoot! will win because it’s become systemic in classrooms. Rather, this is a nod toward great less-loud tools that teachers recommend.

Voting closes January 31st. I’ll have the results as quickly after that as I can.

Here are the categories:

Thanks for the help!
