The Education Foundation released this help guide for creating, managing, and engaging with Facebook.
If you’re thinking about creating a Facebook page for your class or school, this is a good place to start.
The guide is aimed at educators working with young
people within schools, colleges, universities, work based
learning, formal and informal learning settings. It looks
at the way in which Facebook can be used as a tool to:
• Support subject teaching across the curriculum
• Support out of school hours learning
• Encourage informal social learning
• Enable easy communication between students,
teachers and parents
• Support the development of digital citizenship skills
The guide aims to be practical and hands on, but is not
exhaustive. Innovative uses of Facebook are being
developed all of the time and as such we have created
a Facebook for Educators Page run by educators for
educators, to share their experiences and
recommendations across the UK and beyond.
Google Forms are great for collecting types of data and Forms work on any device – laptop / iOS / student and staff phones.
This is new from Google – Now you can insert video into Google Forms – this is great for introducing flipped lessons where you can add additional information for feedback before or after the video. When students complete a form, you get the data in a spreadsheet to review. Forms are free and included in your Google account – If you’re an #ENSCrocks teacher you can use your EN Google account and follow the steps in the two links below. (Sign into google with EN username @eastnoble.net at http://googledrive.eastnoble.net )
Teachers can insert their own videos (camtasia, jing, iPad) or use a YouTube link.

*I’m going to check the status of YouTube videos on iOS devices that have AirWatch installed. This could get rid of quota time but I can’t promise anything.

We’ve talked about Symbaloo being a great resource for your classroom. It saves a lot of time and can be customized for different subjects, projects, and grade levels. Plus it works across devices! This (somewhat) quick video will show you how to create, edit, and share your new symbaloo pages with your classroom. You can still use these as well.
You will also learn how to use the site TinyURL.com to shorten lengthy URL’s into manageable sites that students can type independently.
