Tool of the Week!

Watch this quick video about a neat web app called ZAPTION. Turn online videos into interactive learning experiences that engage students and deepen understanding. This is awesome for a guided assignment and homework in a flipped classroom.

Tip of the Week!

Can you recover a closed tab in Chrome? YES

Have you ever accidentally clicked on the little "x" only to realize you closed an important webpage? In Chrome it is easy to reopen a closed tab.

  • Simply right click on one of the open tabs

  • Click "Reopen Closed Tab"

  • or you can use the shortcut 'Ctrl+Shift+T' instead of the two-step process
