My Thoughts on Khan Academy

I personally love Khan Academy, when I was studying for my COMPASS Placement tests, I used this as a refresher to brush up on skills I had forgotten. It made taking the COMPASS much easier and less stressful.

Padlet

I love this kind of technology it is a fun and interesting way to present information. I will definitely use this in class. This will be a great way for students to show and brainstorm their ideas in a fun and creative way.
