Discover the Power of Curation
Every day appear startup curation tools, many of them are verry interesting to use for teachers, but for some reasons some edtools said good bye . Now I present 3 interesting startups who said adio .
Edshelf mission was to make a positive impact in the world by making education more efficient and effective, strive to enable educators to do what they do best, teach and inspire.
edshelf is a directory of websites, mobile apps, and desktop programs that are rated & reviewed by parents & educators, for parents & educators. They help you find the right educational tools for your specific needs.
Claco was a startup curation tool for educators, a “GitHub for teachers,” a place where teachers can set up their own profiles and share what they’re up to professionally. On Claco, teachers build, organize and share lesson plans (Claco supports a range of lesson content, like website links, embed codes, videos, etc.), along with searching through those posted by the community.The idea is to make collaboration a key focus of the platform, enabling teachers to streamline the lesson-planning process and work together to share and enhance their own work, as well as the work of others. This was Claco .
s
Springpad was a web and mobile app that helps users get organized, get inspired, and get more done.Springpad lets users create digital notebooks for all kinds of projects and interests, which they can fill with tasks, notes, checklists, products, bookmarks, photos, places and other data types. Springpad then automatically enhances and updates what users save, providing suggested shopping lists and wine pairings for recipes, showtimes for movies, current prices and availability for products, etc.

The beauty of Yahki is its simplicity as a social learning environment. It’s an amazing tool! Yahki education channel delivers the toolset in a private learning space for each school or campus, yet naturally and safely extends to the wider community, even globally. The following video shows how. Yahki enables everyone to be a learner and everyone to be a teacher, leveraging Web content, mainstream social media, and school/campus and personal digital resources.
Yahki is online, supporting almost every device and language, 24/7. Students and teachers can curate, create, share, assess, refine, collaborate and connect, locally, nationally, globally. Yahki is an open platform that sits across personal, local and enterprise application layers. Yahki reflects where learning is today, overcoming many of the barriers of traditional education.
Teachers and students often refer to Yahki as the 'glue' that brings together content, ideas, creativity, formative assessment and reflection. Yahki is the ideal mashup of social media, the Web and effective learning. Yahki education channel enables users to ‘channel’ specific Web, premium and user- generated content through their school/campus class, peer and teacher networks. Yahki respects the needs of users as members of learning communities and the wider community.
Yahki’s simplicity and the channel concept set Yahki apart, solving issues for learning communities disrupted by Web 2.0. http://education.yahki.com/ enables you to tell your own story - use the web content, links, photos & videos to create a new story & share it with your friends on Facebook and Twitter. Yahki was released to provide the world’s first bridge between mainstream social media and a safe school or campus learning channel. Yahki now allows each student, teacher and parent to easily collect, mash up and ‘channel’ posts safely to their school network (teachers and students) or to their public network (friends and family) in one environment. There is no longer the need for a public social media environment and a separate school environment - Yahki is true to each.
Features :
Collect
Use Yahki to collect items from the Web. Browse or search to collect pictures, text information, video, tweets and posts from the Web. Curate collected items in folders (Yahki Sets) without losing links to original Web sources. Build your Yahki Sets based on interests or studies, all drag and drop
Mash up
Use Yahki to create mashups. Manage and mash up your social media and items collected from the Web. Organize, annotate, and update items, adding your thoughts and perspectives, all from one screen.
