 * Interesting Ways From Tom's Blog**: @http://edte.ch/blog/interesting-ways/

The **Interesting Ways to Use ** series has been really successful. I measure their success in how useful they are to teachers and other educators in helping with professional development. They have been a great example of **crowdsourcing good quality classroom ideas ** and it has been great fun connecting with all of the people who have taken time to add an idea. It is remarkable what can be achieved and created together if you give people the right way to do it. Thanks for all the help so far. It all began with **One Idea, One Slide and One Image ** as a premise for the IWB presentation and that has always remained. I hope we can all continue to create them – let me know if you have any other ideas for a presentation. I wanted to keep the family together in one place and give you one page to see them all, as so many of you have requested. Don’t forget that if you want to contribute an idea just let me know and I will give you access to share your thoughts. **Interesting Ways to… ** [|Use Google Forms in the Classroom] Use QR Codes in the Classroom [|Ideas for Class Blog Posts] [|Get to Know Your New Class] [|Use a Learning Platform in the Classroom] [|Support Spelling in the Classroom] [|Teach Reading Comprehension in the Classroom] <span style="color: #0071bb;
