Assignment #6:

1. Choose at least two of the tools from the above list. Create an account for each (if required) .
2. Use each of the tools you choose to create a sample of how you would use it in your classroom.
3. Embed the sample (preferred) or link to the URL.

 Sample #1:
http://wallwisher.com/wall/dealmeida_alg2_2012 - this wallwisher poster could be used to post deadlines for my classes and for students to post questions.

Sample #2:
http://www.edmodo.com/home#/join by joining edmodo students can dowload assignment handouts - especially useful for when students are absent.

     4.  Share your thoughts on how you see the tools being integrated into your classroom. How do you see them encouraging participation?

I can see using a web tool to have copies of the lessons, calendar, and handouts for students to look up when they are absent and/or lose the materials.  This will encourage participation, because absenteism is one of my concerns and challenges in my classrooms.
