7 Educational Platforms For Creating Online Course Content

7 Educational Platforms For Creating Online Course Content | Digital Delights for Learners | Scoop.it
Creating online content isn’t just for teachers that teach exclusively distance courses.

Hi Ana, first of all thanks for all the interesting stuff you find and scoop. You are a treasure trove. I'd appreciate though a bit more vetting of your sources and their content as to avoid articles like these which do provide a set of tools names but include no links, references, screenshots or an omogeneous way to review them. On the surface and from the title it looks great, but as you dig into it, you leave with quite a different impression. Given you are my trusted guide on some of these, I'd love for you to be a bit more severe in your selections in spite of quantity of scoops.
Ana Cristina Pratas's comment, July 9, 2014 3:22 AM
Hi Robin, point taken! Sometimes I add posts in my curation so that I can return to them with more time, as was the case with this posting. There are a couple of sites I wanted to check but haven't had the time to yet.

How it works:

  2. Students answer questions by showing their barcodes tothe teacher's smartphone.
