MentorMob

MentorMob http://www.mentormob.com 
I saw this tool on Joyce Valenza's excellent blog Never Ending Search.
I dislike making step by step instructions, because so often the steps change.  This  tool seems to me  to counteract that  flaw, because it lets the crowd update the instructions, so theoretically if steps change, someone will catch the error and change the instructions, And maybe that someone won't be me :)  I think this may work best with videos, but below I made a step by step lesson plan., which had mostly text instructions



Create your own Playlist on MentorMob!

Classroom Ideas:
 This might work well as a supplement to lesson plans for substitute teachers, especially if  there is much to show from various sources.
This might work well as pathfinder in research projects.  In fact, I am going to try this out.

In chemistry classes, this might be a tool for students to explain specific chemical reactions.

In Math classes, this might work in combination with Kahn Academy.

lets you place speech bubbles on your photos, and then embed them in your blog or send them as a link.


Classroom idea: If you have a major point to get across, this could be a clever way to do it. I see its use in creating instructions for projects.
