Create 4.1.1 Define and Explain Learning Object Authoring Tools Forum

Five tools that can be used to help enhance elearning.

Free Tools
Classtools.net: This site is easy to use, requires no password and is free.  It allows for free educational games, assessments, and diagrams.

Hot Potatoes: at http://web.uvic.ca/hrd/hotpot/ allows for help in creating interactive assessment questions such as multiple-choice, short answers, etc.   It is freeware, but not open source.

Jelsim: http://www.jelsim.org/tools.html a free and open source program that allows for creation of educational simulations.

Pay Tools

Turnitin.com: not only does this service detect plagiarism in student work, but also can provide grammar instruction and creates an automatic online portfolio.

Grammarly.com: a service with free trials, but requires an account to use enhanced features.  Like turnitin.com it can find plagiarism, but can do so before a submission.  Also checks a student paper for editing errors.
