Feedly Article #2--"'Edueto' Has Got To Be One of the Best Teacher & Web 2.0 Sites of the Year"

Edueto - Original Online Exercises 


Summary of Article:

Edueto allows teachers to create a variety of online exercise.  Teachers can create: quizzes, gap filling, matching, writing, sorting, equations, PicTag, and sequence.  Mr. Ferlazzo believes it to be one of the most useful sites of the year, and it's free!  Teachers can create the activities and assign them to virtual classrooms.  This means that, unlike many sites, teachers can track student progress. Tutorials are available for each of the applications.  

Application in the Classroom:

Many of these applications will work for the English Language Arts classroom.  You can make quizzes, but many sites have quiz applications.  The key here is the ability to track student progress, again, for free!  With any literary work, the sequence application could help students order and review.  Gap filling and matching would come in handy for literary term reviews, or even, say, matching characteristics of a character to the character.  There is also a writing section.  I will have to review that in greater detail before I can suggest possible applications.
