  1. 1

    Etherpad

    Co-writing in real time is a wonderful experience for students. I use it too much in my own Master studies.
  2. 2

    Gmail

    To me, the integration of Gmail that works best. E-mail, documents, calendars and schedules mean that I do not really need so much more.
  3. 3

    Google Docs

    Try to let students collaborate on their documents. Nice experience. In addition, you can create smart forms that you can send via email or as link to the students - and they fill. Everything adds up nicely into a spreadsheet. Very good - spending more and more.
  4. 4

    Digsby

    Digsby gives you the opportunity to gather all your contacts from Facebook, MSN, Twitter and Linkedin several into one contact list, that adds up as a separate listing on screen. Simple and straightforward.
  5. 5

    MSN

    Have you tried to add to your students on MSN? If you choose to ignore much of the traffic, you get a very good guidance tool. The advantage is that it generates a log, which you can use as a basis for the next instruction. Remember to deal with the student about the use of the log.
  6. 6

    Zotero

    Manage your bookmarks in an orderly and transparent way. Only works with Firefox, but it's worth it. You can also share with others - and you can collaborate and synchronize your bookmarks.

    Mind Mapping Tool - Free

  13. 13

    Mobilephone

    Capture whiteboard, or trip you are on. Add into the LMS. blog and the students will be able to notice things they might otherwise have missed. In addition - good memories.
  14. 14

    Skype

    Real-time communication, preferably with a web camera is very good. You can also see on the screen until it communicates with you - good if someone is stuck with a problem. You can see where they have problems - and advise accordingly.
  15. 15

    Hootsuite

    Keeps track of your Twitter feeds on a elelegant way. Allows you to choose which account you tweet on and give you statistics, too.
  16. 16
