- social media! Favorites = Tumblr (share blogs with peers and search subject hashtags e.g. #finalstips; can communicate with other students in your class or similar class) & YouTube (e.g. Crash Course) ("videos to me are a lot more memorable to visualize concepts and steps vs. taking notes" and "the ideal classroom is one that welcomes this technology more"
- GoogleDocs "saved my life one day when I forgot my assignment - I just ran to the library and printed it out"
- Skype or Google Hangout "I'm in AP Physics; if I have a problem I can ask a friend or my teacher can set up online office hours"
