Tech Tools for Interactive Remote Teaching Webinar
Wakelet is a tool that enables users to take ownership of and encourage content that interests them. Users of Wakelet can save and arrange content in directories or wakes (e.g., student portfolios). It bridges the gap between humans and algorithms in a personal way to curate beautiful and usable content. A strong alternative to Padlet or Storify is Wakelet. Videos, pictures, connexions, and more can be curated by you and your students.
