My score was 1000/1000 on the quiz.  I am pretty sure if I did not already take 21 Things for 21st Century Educators and also teach online, there would have been questions I didn't know!

I really like the "What do you want to create today?" I think I will use that for my Capstone lesson to help the students decide what they want to create and which tools they could use the help them do that.  The other useful picture is the mind map that students can use to find tools that will help them create what they are hoping to create.  There are so many tools, this organizes them nicely and helps the students decide which to use.  I plan on using this one too, very useful.

I played with Padlet, it was pretty fun to mess around with it, close to Glogster, but more 'simple', a good alternative option for students to use, I was surprised it wasn't in 21 Things.
