• practical examples of how low-cost and free technologies can be used to support student learning
• best practices for integrating web-based tools into a course management system and managing student privacy in a Web 2.0 environment

• an easy-to-reference format, organized with visual icons used to delineate each tool's visual, video, voice, and mobile features
