Good afternoon from the FreeTech4Teachers.com World Headquarters in Maine. This week I had the privilege to once again present at the NCTIES Conference. If you are in the greater North Carolina area, the NCTIES conference is one that you don’t want to miss. Everyone there knows how to have fun while sharing and learning from each other. As you can see in the picture to the left, everyone shares powerstrips too.

Here are this week’s most popular posts:
1. Great Tools for Informal Assessment
2. Two Tools for Turning Outlines Into Mind Maps
3. Frequently Overlooked Google Search Tools and Strategies
4. 75 Practical Ed Tech Tips Videos
5. How to Search for Publicly Shared Google Documents
6. 5 TED-Ed Lessons on How the Human Body Works
7. Insert Graphs and Equations Into Google Docs and Forms
