Langwitches tagged me for this. I pretty much agree with her list, and and will add a few others. I am trying to keep an elementary lens on with these. I actually work with 9-12th grade and find the same list works for that age group. In Upper School we have loved google pages and used animoto and a variety of slideshow/image tools to decorate them. Kids like picturetrail, vuvox, and ibloks for that. We have used del.icio.us and diigo for research this year. Voicethread became mainstream much like iMovie did a few years ago. But thats all Upper School stuff.
I frequently talk to the lower school instructional technologist and we share links often. While I second langwitches list, I would add the following.
1. Kerpoof - animation and storytelling
2. Gizmoz or Vokis - talking avatars
3.Toondo - Make comic books or graphic novels
4. Create a Graph - Decide the type of graph and how to format it.
Too new to make the list but interesting to play with
Scriblink - Online whiteboard that only requires the teacher to post a URL so doesn't need email accounts for all the kids. (Upper school has used Vyew.)
JamStudio - a mini garageband throught the browser
Then there is always this
Just kidding!
I'll tag the following:
