1.  popplet.com
      
     Today's first shared link features an interesting web tool with several potential classroom applications.
      Users add photos, text boxes, and so forth to the work area. This work area has the potential to     
      become the basis for a presentation with zooming effects similar to prezi.com, but also allows for
      flow charting, audio, and more. See examples at the site.

2.  storybird.com

     This little web tool could be fun for personal use if you have young children, or could serve as the 
     basis for a classroom project for early childhood education students. The free application provides
     graphic images in the style of a child's picture book. You add the text. The books are printable and
     may be viewed on a variety of devices.


3.     Student Success

Learner analytics is a hot topic in higher education right now. This article examines two case studies in a university setting.
