EdWeb 2.0 - A Teacher's Digital Swiss Army Knife

Did you ever want a free web site for your class that includes all thise digital bells-and-whistles, such as podcasts, blogs, calendars, FAQs, scrolling news, hot links, polls, dynamic pages, groups, folders, public and private access control, a showcase for student work, student logins you create, private messaging, and more - all free? No kidding, and no special technical skills are required. EdWeb 2.0 offers all of this. Click the image for a more readable version.



Free sites are available to teachers willing to offer the sale of mousepads created from images used on their sites to parents and others. To learn more about this innovative approach to making Web 2.0 tools readily accessible to teachers and students at a cost that can't be beat, view the same pages on their web site. School-wide versions available at a reasonable cost, too, with or withought the mouspad sale feature which schools can use as a fund raiser.

  1. Hi Frank,

    Thank you for the mention/blog post.

    I'm the developer of EdWeb, and got an alert via Google Alerts that somebody was talking about EdWeb :-), which sent me to your blog post.

    I had taken off the link to the teacher web site creation wizard to 'sign up for a free teacher site' a couple months ago, but seeing you mention it, I added it back to the www.edweb.us site tonight.

    I'm focused now on EdWeb 3.0
    It's still a bit early to post official info, but I do have one school using the EdWeb Site Builder for Schools (a piece of EdWeb 3.0) - http://www.tynes.pylusd.org. Development is still only about 50% done at this point.

    If you're interested in EdWeb 3.0, I'll keep you posted...
