I wanted to share a free resource that Teaching Matters, a non profit
educational consulting and professional development organization, has
developed NYC schools.
Visit www.teachingmatters.org and check out PageKeeper.
This is version 1.0 of a suite of tools that we are designing for
educators to help them quickly and easily organize websites for their
learners. This first stage is a very simple tool for collecting and
organizing websites for your students. Similar tools exist, however
many include advertising. There is and will be no advertising
associated with this tool suite.
Future versions of this tool will allow page ranking and page sharing so
that educators in the same subject area, same grade, and even same zip
code can easily share their collection of electronic resources as it
aligns to their local curriculum.
Please forward this to others as you think it might be helpful.
Teaching Matters is a non-profit professional development organization
that partners with educators to improve public schools. We use
technology in the classroom to prepare teachers and their students for
21st century learning and achievement.
This suite of tools will be developed and enhanced over the next two
years. We welcome educators suggestions on features that might support
their work.
