Simply copy-and-paste a set of links in our text box and click 'Stich It'. We'll convert those links into one short URL for you to share. It's that easy! Want to have your students see several sites but don't want them to type each individual URL?  Stitch.it can help.  Type in the URLs for the sites you want and then they will stitch all of them together.

I stitched four of my blogs together.  Click on the link below in order to see them all.

CLASSTOOLS POST IT

This assignment was done by my Art One students. They chose a piece of artwork that they wanted to discuss. It was uploaded to Post It and then they had ten "post it" notes on which they could discuss the piece of work. This really gave me some insight as to how much knowledge they could apply. Look at the samples below. The first one dealt with lines, shapes and colors.

CLASSTOOLS TIMELINE

Here is an awesome alternative for a written report that can be done in a timeline fashion.  It can be found at classtools.net.  Below are two Art One students' timeline about a researched artist.

This was a very positive experience for all the students. After completion they emailed me either the URL for their timeline or the embed code so that I could check them and upload them to my blog.

CLASSTOOLS' FAKEBOOK

Interested in doing an awesome technology project that most of your students will enjoy doing rather than a written report?  Well try Classtools' Fakebook.  It can be found at the following URL:
http://www.classtools.net/fb/home/page .  Here you'll find a template that your students will fill in and the result will look amazingly like a Facebook page. 

Use "Fakebook" to chart the plot of a book, the development of a character, a series of historical events, the debates and relationships between people, and so on!  Get started by entering a name at the top of the page. Then proceed to add friends, posts, comments and profile information.  You can save your work and edit it again later.  You can also embed your Fakebook into your blog as I have below.  In my Fakebook I took on the identity of native American artist, R.C. Gorman.  I gave him friends that he communicated with according to what I discovered about him such as his father being a code talker.  So I added Mr. Keith Little as one of his friends.  Mr. Little, by the way, was a real code talker in WWI.  It's easy to upload URLs for websites and even Youtube videos.  This can be the ultimate in "Creative Reports."  If you want to see the original one online without the advertising on the side, go to the following address: http://www.classtools.net/fb/99/TBPPX5 .
