KeepandShare.com
At work today, I came across a new and interesting website. We were looking for a calendar put lesson plans into. We decided that the caldendars in Outlook do not have enough room in them to input much information. My colleague came across Keepandshare.com, which is a website that has calendars, documents, a place to upload photos, a place to input your favorite websites, and I'm sure there are many other things that I have not even came across yet. Like many of the sites we have looked at in class, you need to sign up but it is free! The cool thing about the website is after you create things, you can then share them with others. You can also bring in other documents from your computer and work with them through this website. I see the website probably being used more by teachers, but I was thinking it would be a great place for secondary students to organize things. They could keep their planners online with all their assignments, they could keep their actual homework assignments in this one place, and they could keep track of websites that are helpful to them. Check it out and let me know what you think. If anyone has suggestions on how this could be used at the elementary level, I'd love to hear them!

What a cool idea! I haven't had a chance to check it out, but I am thinking that a graduate student with three kids could use this to organize her life as well! :0)
ReplyDeleteWould it be possible to share the creation with parents? I was just thinking that it sounds almost like a school newsletter all in one....calendars, photos, websites, etc.
Cannot wait to check it out! Thanks for sharing.
Excellent - I had not seen this. I added this to our Wiki site!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool resource. I like Beth's idea of sharing it with the parents. I wonder if a final product could be forwarded?
