Hello again.
For everyone, I’ve recently added a link (on WebCT under Tech Tips) to the common abbreviations that I use when editing / grading your papers electronically. I’ll add other marks as I begin to use them or if you have any suggestions.
In Urban Planning today, I talked about a variety of free online tools, all available through WebCT, but for your reference, they included:
- GoogleDocs – docs.google.com – where you can create or upload and edit word processing docs, spreadsheets, and presentations, and even save them in other formats. Use it to turn WP or OpenOffice files into MS Word or Adobe PDF.
- Flickr – www.flickr.com – “like YouTube for pictures”, Flickr allows you to upload your photos and does the compression and resizing for you. This is useful if your file is too large to upload to WebCT.
- Creative Commons – www.creativecommons.org – where you can search Flickr, Yahoo, Google, and other picture sites for licensed pictures available for your use in papers or theses, etc. You can also use it to protect your own work. there’s more about CC licenses here.
- Delicious – del.icio.us – an online bookmarking site. My links for classes are here.
