Finding great tools for your subject area is often time consuming. This post provides links and descriptions of 30 tools. Most are free (but not all). Although geared to social studies most tools would be useful to all teachers and learners. Below is a list of five tools, including several that were new to me.
* Draggo, a free tool that helps you organize websites and is shareable.
* Explee, an easy online video maker. This tool provides a free trial and then requires payment. There is an education plan available..
* Flipsnack allows you to create an online flipbook. You can create a book up to 15 pages in length for free.
* CK-12 Flexbooks allows you to create your own online textbook, or modify ones that exist.
* Kahoot allows you to create interactive quizzes that have a game show quality.
