TOP 10 TOOLS 2007

Patrick is an educational technology coordinator for grades 6-12 for Sparta Township Public Schools in Sparta, NJ.  He blogs at Chalkdust101.

Patrick's Top 10 Tools as at 12 August 2007

  1. Google Reader - a bit overwhelming at times, but still the hands down best resource for learning

  2. Blogger - my think aloud.  This is where conversation begins and ends with me.

  3. Google Notebook - I use this for focused research when I need to compile a list of sources for myself or others. 

  4. iShowU - Best cost to performance ratio I have found in a screencaster

  5. Audacity - still simple, still perfect

  6. Zamzar - Converts just about anything on the fly and offers a simple downloadable file

  7. Skype - How I connect to people much brighter than myself

  8. twitter - My new favorite thing.  Quick, ubiquitous, and networked.

  9. del.icio.us - I use this more as a searchable catalog of links rather than an organizational tool

  10. Firefox - As many have said, this is the home base.  Completely customized and suited to what I need it to do

What are your Top 10 tools -  for your own personal working and learning
and/or creating, delivering or supporting others' learning?  Let us know
