Drawing/Creativity Tools

SketchFu is a fun way to draw.  Create a drawing, save and play back as a movie of the drawing being created. If you have a webpage, you can Embed your animated drawing.  You can also share the link with others as I have done below.

Dropbox

Dropbox

Dropbox is a 2 GB e-vault tool that allows teachers to drop files in an online folder and sync it with multiple computers. For example, I might create a file on my MacBook at school, move it into my Dropbox folder and then open it up on my Dell at home. No jump drives to lose or accidentally wash and no email files that are too large to send. Plus, as an added bonus, I can create collaborative folders in Dropbox to share with partner teachers. Love it!

Stixy

Stixy is an online bulletin board. Create as many Stixyboards as you like, one for each project. Use Stixy to easily organize and share:

• Your family’s schedule
• Projects at work
• An upcoming holiday with your friends
• Your photos from your last bike trip
• Or share a file or two with a friend

Only you set the limitations for how you want to use Stixy.

Create
Be creative! We have no fixed grid that you need to follow. Can you see the widgets in the widget tray below? Just drag a widget out on the board and place it anywhere you want. Resize it, move it around, and select from a number of options to design your reminders, photos, notes, and files.

Share
To share a Stixyboard with friends, family, or your colleagues at work, is as easy as it gets. Sometimes it’s nice or in fact necessary to have an online space for common photos, reminders, files, and so forth. Each Stixyboard has a unique set of members. No one else can see or use your board unless you choose to open your board for public view.
