Not every classroom has an interactive white board or Smartboard, but with www.thinkature.com, a teacher can have the next best thing!
Thinkature.com is a website that starts with a blank slate. The user can freehand draw, add "cards" (like text boxes), connect cards and ideas with arrows, and colorcode. The teacher could use this tool in class and have the students participate in creating the page, or the teacher can produce a chart before class. The account is free, and you can share any workspaces that you create, making it ideal for students to plan out group projects out of class. It even has a user-created wiki instruction manual!
From looking at the thinkature.com forums, it looks like there are some glitches with loading, saving, and erasing. Hopefully the site has fixed or will fix these problems, since thinkature.com's tools could be incredibly useful for students and teachers!
