BP4_Eduslide

Since I need to be prepared for where education is going, this Web 2.0 tool is a great place to start.  The setting up of the class was simple and fairly self explanatory.  The folder system is related to the windows system in which you can give a hierarchy to the folders.  They have a preset of tools that would most commonly be utilized such as Quizzes, Assignments, Media, WIKI, FAQ's, Notecards, etc.  One of the best features for teachers is that they can privatize their classes so only those with the password may get in. In order to make this a viable course system, some security of who is actually taking the course would have to be put into place.  A great way to try this tool out is for when a substitute is needed, set up some assignments for the students where they can first see a tutorial by the teacher and then complete a quiz online.
