Odosketch - A Simple Online Sketchpad

Free Technology for Teachers: Odosketch - A Simple Online Sketchpad: "Odosketch is a free online sketchpad that I learned about from Danny Nicholson's The Whiteboard Blog. Odosketch, like many similar sites, provides a blank canvas on which you can create drawings from scratch. You can save your work to a free Odosketch account, share it online, or download it. Odosketch's niche appears to be creating drawings with "charcoal pencil" effects. Odosketch is well suited to use on touch screen computers and interactive whiteboards."

Wikispaces Projects: A better way to work in classroom groups

Projects: A better way to work in classroom groups: "We’re calling this new feature Projects. Whenever you have a particular assignment or activity, you can create a project for it, then define teams of members, each with its own unique pages, files, and permissions. Team content (that is, pages and files) are grouped together, separate from the main area of the wiki. That way, students in teams can do their group work completely independently from other teams."
