I'm not sure how many people have heard of this site, but I came across it a few weeks ago and it is just fantastic. Just click on the logo above to be redirected to the site.
It has a myriad of ICT tools and explanations on how they work and how they can be useful in the classroom. I will touch more on what I discover here at a later date.
For now I highly recommend looking at JUX. Jux is a fantastic tool which can be used as an image based blog. There are six different posting styles, slideshow, photo, block quote, video, article and countdown. Any pictures you want to use can be uploaded from your own computer or other services such as Fflickr, Facebook or even Instagram.
I think this could be used as a tool for teachers to introduce subjects or topics within a subject. It could also be used by students to create visual summaries of what they have discovered during class, or perhaps as a online visual diary of ideas they may wish to use in further assignments.
