The technology of this month is LiveBinders. LiveBinders is taking the binder concept and continually improving it to be a leader in the next generation of content sharing. They want to help you go paperless and be on the cutting edge of efficiency. It is the product of a close collaboration with the user community. Learn more from the resources in our Scarfe Digital Sandbox. You can also check their official site at: http://www.livebinders.com/
Presenter Shirley Soo will introduce how to use LiveBinders effectively. Come and set up an account, choose a colour scheme, and start adding content. Livebinders is a digital binder with tabs that open various links. Both teachers and students can gather websites, PDFs, photos, text and media and organize them into thematic binders that live on digital shelves. One can even use LiveBinders to create E-portfolios or Web quests. Choose to share with fellow teachers, librarians, students or keep it private. Best of all, this tool works across all platforms- PC, Android, and iOS.
