As a middle school Language Arts teacher, I am excited to be able to create various visuals to promote student learning. The image above, created through Classtools.net, is one that I plan to use in my classroom in my standardized units on the media and textual features. It is has been proven over and over again that when students can organize learned information in various forms through graphic organizers it shows mastery of the content at hand; And mastery is what every educator strives for! This Web 2.0 tool is excellent for educators! The creativity, ease of creation, versitality, and seemingly endless template choices make Classtools a winner for k-12 and beyond educators.
