Ning.com : Create Your Own Facebook or MySpace

How amazing would it be if you created your own community for your students or your school or your students' families?

Ning.com is a tool allowing you to create your own social networking site for your own community.

Set up events, connect to your flickr photostream and your youtube channel to customize the look and feel of your group.

Maybe your class creates a ning site together to talk about the cell or the timeline that lead to the Industrial Revolution. Your members can create study events for everyone or you can share notes with the blogging feature. One site JUST FOR YOU.

You have the tools. What can you create?

Teacher Tube

Ah...you've gotten your fill of YouTube. You don't want your young students to be distracted by the bling of something that doesn't directly have to do with your class material...however, you know that your young people engage with video and the internet at a pace that is dizzying.

Your students are VISUAL learners.

Enter TeacherTube. Never thought you'd see a dope video about improper fractions? Check out this rap.
