Ten years ago, in another somewhat futile attempt to reduce the backlog of resources I want to share, I began this occasional “Ed Tech Digest” post where I share three or four links I think are particularly useful and related to…ed tech, including some Web 2.0 apps.

You might also be interested in checking out all my edtech resources.

Here are this week’s choices:

A Better World lets you plan “What If?” with World History. I’m adding it to The Best Resources For Teaching “What If?” History Lessons.

Type in a name into “Baby Name” and it will show you a chart of its popularity over the past eighty years.  I’m adding it to The Best Places For Students To Learn About…Their Names.

Science folks, I think you’re going to love these new partnerships! 😎

The videos you know and love from Amoeba Sisters, Bozeman Science, Be Smart, & MinutePhysics are now interactive on @quizizz.bsky.social! 😀

Everything is organized for you in this sheet—enjoy!

Fake A Tweet lets you do just that. I’m adding it to The Best Tools For Creating Fake “Stuff” For Learning.

Mail Burn lets you create temporary email addresses.  I’m adding it to The Best Temporary Email Address Sites For Students (Or Anyone).
