Over a year ago I set up a template for a Moodle course for a resource room
teacher.  The intent was to use it as a portal for students to use when they
have spare/extra time.  I really want to expand this over the summer hoping
that all teachers could use the learning resources when they have remaining
time at the end of 40 and 80-minute classes (or even with substitutes when
the material is worthy--much better than a study hall).

Some examples of learning opportunities include:

   - Free Rice
   - ThatQuiz
   - SAT Question of the Day
   - etc.

Going through my Diigo and Delicious links and Jim Burke's Learning in Maine
wiki should yield some tools for me to add here and in the document over the
next day or two.  If your school/classroom has a website or list, that would
also be helpful.  I think that many people on our ACTEM listservs would
benefit from this discussion.

I just created a Google Doc (http://bit.ly/2011freelearningtools) to list
our free learning tools.  You can simply add to the Google Doc, but I do see
some real advantages in sharing your lists on our listservs (easy, more
people would see them, etc.).  I will transfer the names and websites to the
Google Doc.

Thanks in advance for your contributions.  I understand that you may not
have much time right now, but leaving just a couple sites off the top of
your head would be helpful to all.  We might even motivate teachers and
part-time integrators to make some real changes in their classrooms.

Have a great day!

Shawn
