We’ve been tracking some of the more interesting new technology products thanks to the new(ish) Global Education Database. It’s a helpful tool to help you find the best products for your classroom, and figure out how to implement them.
Alfredo Corell's insight:
There are tons of different apps, web tools, books, events, and more in the database, and the list is growing as people add their favorite products and offer reviews of other products. In the interest of sharing as many tools as we can (since we know they’ll be useful to at least some of you!) we’ve selected five at random from the GEDB’s Product Reviews section. Below are snippets of the listings you’ll find including how to use each tool in education.

"Project-based learning is a matter of identifying needs and opportunities (using an app like flipboard), gathering potential resources (using an app like pinterest), collecting notes and artifacts (with an app like Evernote), concept-mapping potential scale or angles for the project (using an app like simplemind), assigning roles (with an appp like Trello), scheduling deadlines (with apps like Google Calendar), and sharing it all (with apps like OneDrive or Google Drive).
With that in mind, below are 30 of the best apps for getting this kind of work done in the classroom, with an emphasis on group project-based learning apps for both Android and iPad (and even a few for plain old browsers)."
