Here are a few things to get you off to a fresh start in 2015:
- Tired of student PowerPoint presentations? Give students the option to present their findings using a free infographic tool at http://www.easel.ly/ This can get them away from simply reading slides to actually talking about the salient points of their work.
- Do your students want more help in any type of computation? Get them to try out Wolfram Alpha – a computational knowledge engine (rather than a simple informational search engine). Take a tour http://www.wolframalpha.com/tour/what-is-wolframalpha.html
