These tools can help good teachers become even better. They facilitate communication beyond the classroom setting, ease instructional routines, make learning more fun and effective.

Learning Management System

  1. UVLe (uvle.up.edu.ph) is an online course management system that helps teachers run courses from a single site. It's also a platform for sharing multimedia materials.[1] More UVLe's advantages || Why UVLe is a superior platform


Collaboration Tools

Online Chat[2]
UVLe already has an online chat that can be archived for later retrieval. The alternatives include backchannel platforms like:

  1. Google Moderator - where a teacher can post questions and have students vote for the ones they would most like answered.

  2. Today’s Meet - where teachers can set up virtual classrooms. The alternative to this is Campfire that enables you to catch up with what you missed while you weren't logged in. Disadvantage to Campfire: expensive, separate platform. UVLe already has group chat, which is free.

  3. DILC Web Chat is a publicly accessible backchannel platform as well.



Telephony

  1. Skype
  2. Others



Shared Desktop
Shared desktop applications enable you to show people certain things remotely. Writing words about something is sometimes less effective than just showing it to people. (More info here, here)

  1. Chicken of the VNC
  2. LogMeIn


Project Management
Project management applications can help track and manage complex projects.

  1. Fogbugz


an RSS feed icon - whenever you see this on a webpage, chances are its update can be collected automatically

RSS Reader
An RSS (Really Simply Syndication) Reader enables you to collect highly-specialized updates from various sources. An RSS feed can also be incorporated into UVLe, so the latest updates from your field can be shared with students.

  1. Google Reader

Blogs
Journal writing can be an effective tool in teaching and learning.[3] In UVLe, this can be in a form of a blog that the student can publish at the UVLe site or something that the student can keep between himself and his teacher. The alternative is to have a totally public blog in places like Blogspot and Wordpress. However, blogging for a course in full view of an online public may not be appropriate for everyone.
