Chromebooks have become a powerful tool for education. Chromebooks have overtaken iPads for classroom use in the USA (Garrahan and Bradshaw 2014). To get the most out of your Chromebook, there is a range of tools that you can use to support different classroom activities.
Content Curation
Pocket: Any time you see a webpage or piece of content which you’d like to save for later reading (offline or online), simply save it to Pocket.
Feedly: Feedly is a content curation tool which lets you select content sources, and find related content. You can then share this to your social media accounts.
Newsela: Newsela is a content curation tool with a difference. It lets you find news articles – suitable for five different reading levels. Assign articles and then track which students have viewed them.
