Get Ready for Digital Learning Day!

In celebration of Technology Month as we inch closer to Digital Learning Day next week, we developed a list of tech resources to use in your service-learning. Wherever you land on the spectrum from novice to techie, this is a valuable collection that will make easy work of your service-learning tech needs.

Here is a small sampling of the great tools we've found:

Technology Resources for Service-Learning

Below are many technology tools that you can use in a service-learning project. The list is not exhaustive but does focus on programs that are free and have been used by members and staff.

Video tools can enable students to advocate for a certain issue to a large audience, spread awareness of a service event, or be used to peer-teach:

Animoto is a video creation service (online and mobile) that makes it easy and fun for anyone to create and share extraordinary videos using their own pictures, video clips, words and music.

Go!Animate is the world’s #1 do-it-yourself animated video website. Produce professional-looking videos from scratch – within minutes – then share them with the world.

WeVideo lets you create videos “in the moment” wherever you are, giving you full creative control and the ability to collaborate with others on video stories.

TeacherTube is an educator and student friendly site for sharing the best content (audio, video and much more) for your class.
