Free Tech

I like to keep records of my classes.  My Co-op class is enrolled in several online academies and requires reporting at the end of the year.  I can send a spreadsheet of my grades, the blog posts of class, and my CV saved on Drive.  Here are some free tech sites.

  Google Classroom is a type of learning management system.  It is free with a gmail account.  You may open several classrooms.  Google Classroom allows you to enter grades, links, worksheets or documents, homework questions, etc.  The grades can be summarized and exported in a spreadsheet.  (There are many learning management systems used by public and private schools.)  Google apps such as Sheets and Docs, and Slides are free spreadsheet and document apps.  Yes, there are free templates, too.  Microsoft Office has free Excel, Word, Powerpoint, etc.

What are some other free tech?  Here is a free graphing calculator.  Here is a TI graphing calculator emulator.   Another top tech site is Prezi for presentations.  Have you heard of concept maps?  The Cmap program is free.   This site identifies 321 free tools for teachers.  Get on it!
