On Monday, we used Incredibox, started a blog, used Noteflight to transcribe "Bicycle," and started social bookmarking with Diigo.
Incredibox is new to me. I like it a lot. It is a great tool for teaching concepts around composition and form. It is very user friendly, but I do wish that it worked on smart phones- oh well. I hope to use Incredibox with my middle school students this year.
Blogging... yeah.
Noteflight is also very familiar to me. I use it a great deal. The cheat sheet of Noteflight commands is very helpful, I am glad to have that and will use it again in the future. It would be of interest to me to see the deluxe version of Noteflight, and see what other features are available to a paid subscription.
Social bookmarking via Diigo is new to me; I understand why and how it would be a useful tool, so I will try to use it and all it's features. Normally I bookmark websites I like via my browser Bookmarks, and into various folders, but I suppose Diigo would be a smarter way to go. It occurred to me that Pinterest is kind of used that way, too, via pictures. Also not necessarily organized very well. I like that on Diigo you can highlight text on the website and make notes about what exactly is of interest.
In total I feel like I am TPACKing pretty well so far.
