Cool Tool For School

Today in our SEDU 183 class we were asked to find a tool that would be useful to us as teachers or to the future students that we will be teaching. I choose to pick a tool that will be useful to the students. Most students, no matter their age, love to hear the teacher say that they're going to be doing group work. I was never really one of those kids, but that was until I recently discovered the tool called Pegby. Pegby is online program that allows people whether in groups or not manage and organize their progress on whatever it is they're working on. The way pegby works is that you make note cards. These note cards allow you about 200 characters per card, you can put hyperlinks on them, and assign a specific task for someone to do. After creating the note cards you can place them into three different categories to do, in progress, and completed. This allows the students to keep themselves organized and also gives the group or the group leaders the ability to assign certain tasks to each individual. Anyone can be invited to pegby through email and can make a card. So teachers can observe how the groups progress and delegate jobs to the individuals.

Above is a short tutorial on how to use pegby.
