Inspiration is something that I would invest in for my classroom. I could use it to make outlines for my class or for my own lectures. I could also use it to create a concept map for my class to fill in or even for my class to make a map for themselves of a certain event in history. Inspiration is very easy to use especially with some templates already set for you. Students are also able to create graphic organizers and presentations. It is a great software for students and teachers to brainstorm and organize ideas. I would definitely use it in my classroom.
My favorite web resources that we looked at in class were the library curriculum and Rubistar. They are both easy to use which is important. Rubistar is the easiest way I have ever seen to block out a rubric. The bad thing about Rubistar is that it is almost impossible to search for a previously made rubric that will match the project you are trying to do because there is no tagging. The library curriculum was an amazing resource that I did not know the school had. It is easy to find what you need and has a wide variety of subject matter. The downside to this resource is that once I leave Albright, I will not have access to it anymore.
