March 22nd 2018: What about my presence in the cloud? It just occurred to me that I haven't made much use of Amazon, Microsoft and Google's cloud offerings lately and yet I think I'm signed up for all three. I need to investigate.
_____________________________________________________________________
List of services that I'm making use of:
One Drive: https://onedrive.live.com/ I've used 3.2GB of my 15GB allowance. I've also installed the progressive web app (PWA) on my Mac
Mega Account: https://mega.nz/ I have 50GB of unused storage available here.
My Moodle site at https://voodooguru.gnomio.com/
CLASSFLOW: similar to Edmodo. I've made an account with the site.
I'm now using AirTable
Google Classroom is now offered to everybody, not just teachers at registered school.
Signed up to AWS (Amazon Web Services) and Chime (Amazon's latest collaboration tool)
Signed up to SHARELaTeX, an online LaTeX editor allowing export as a PDF
Signed up to P2P BitChute, a YouTube alternative, that makes use of WebRTC and bittorrent
Downloaded and installed atom the OS X version of this new text editor
Opened an account on Speaker Deck, similar to Google Slides. The site only accepts PDF files.
Useful site for online collaboration via whiteboard is Stoodle. It's ready to go, you don't need to sign up for it.
I've now reactivated my account at voodooguru23.wikispaces.com (username is voodooguru).
Another site that is affiliated with wikispaces is testeach (I've signed up using my Google credentials).
I've set up a Moodle site using free web hosting on Moodle Cloud: https://seanreeves.moodlecloud.com.
I've also created a link to my old Pedagogical Posturing blog which consisted mainly of posts relating to technological matters. I keep updating it with technological posts.
Let's not forget Richard Byrne's very useful site: Free Technology for Teachers and Practical Ed Tech
