Edcanvas makes it easy for teachers to organize and share
educational materials in a visually pleasing format. The "canvas" part
of Edcanvas is where you arrange videos, links, images, and files around
any topic of your choosing. Edcanvas has built-in search tools so that
you do not have to leave your Edcanvas account in order to locate
resources.
This week Edcanvas introduced school-wide accounts. The new Edcanvas for Schools allows administrators to have unlimited classes, students, and teachers in one account. The administrator create accounts and administer accounts in Edcanvas for Schools.
Applications for Education
One of the features of Edcanvas for Schools that some administrators may like is the option to see which teachers are using the service the most. Administrators can also see active lessons to curate a selection of best practices.

What School Leaders Need to Know About Digital Technologies and Social Media
This blog post comes from the shameless commerce division of Free Technology for Teachers. As some readers know, I do some writing outside of this blog. One of the writing projects I worked on last year was a contribution to What School Leaders Need to Know About Digital Technologies and Social Media. The book was organized and edited by Chris Lehmann and Scott McLeod. The contribution that I made along with Carl Anderson is a chapter about online mind mapping tools and strategies. In all there are thirty-six contributing authors. The book is available now through Amazon.

Free Webinar - Creating Websites for Elite Educators
Two of the great K-12 school administrators from my Twitter list of K-12 Administrators are hosting a free webinar next week. Next Thursday, May 27 Eric Sheninger and Patrick Larkin are hosting a webinar titled Creating Branded Websites for Elite Educators. Eric and Patrick both effectively use blogs and other forms of social media to communicate with their school's communities and with the ed tech community at large. See their blog here and here. The focus of their webinar is using the web and social media to improve communication with parents, students, and faculty. You can register for the webinar here.

Schoohoo - Free School Notification System
Schoohoo is a free system for sending text and email alerts to parents, students, and faculty members. Schoohoo can be used to send messages about early dismissals, delayed starts, or meeting times. Schoohoo is available for free to any school regardless of size.
Applications for Education
Schoohoo could be a good way to directly contact parents in the event of change in your school's schedule. The concept is similar to that of the Alerts.com system that I reviewed last fall.
