what is classtools?

ClassTools has been around a long time but they keep adding new things. There are some tools you can find lots of places but other tools and games that are more difficult to come by. For example, a tool to create a Fakebook profile, or iphone conversation between two characters of your choice, a hexagon creator, Connect4 quiz generator, and fishbone diagram to name a few. The games include Pac-Man, Arcade game generator and Dustbin game generator.

Each game or tool allows you to add your own questions or content so students learn while they play. What is really great, each tool has detailed instructions when you click on it so you spend very little time getting your tools/games set up for class.
