It's Never Too Late to Flip!
As the upper school librarian at the Bullis School in Potomac, Md., a northwest suburb of Washington, D.C., I’m viewed as a valued resource by teachers who are preparing to embark on research projects with their students. Unfortunately, I don’t have the luxury of spending more than a single class period with students, so it is important that I use the time well.

The WYSIWYG interface makes it easy to create and publish media-rich lessons, assignments and homework. CloudSchool can also be a platform for professional development. After signing up, teachers are given a Teaching Space with an address of their choice (like: cloudschool.org/joycevalenza). Users may drag elements up and down to reorder them. CloudSchool is a simple, elegant, free teaching platform and I plan to use it regularly with my classes and in workshops.
