I DESIGNED A LESSON PLANNING SITE WITH TEACHERS FOR TEACHERS
Yahoo! Teachers started as one of the company's 24-hour "hack days" that turned into a two-year project that built a bookmarklet, archive, and collaboration space for educators. Originally meant to be a research tool for trip planning, it became a productivity solution for teachers working on lesson plans and preparation. The application uses two components: the gobbler is a widget similar to a clipping service on the right side of the browser. It has three slots, or "buckets," which contain preassigned metadata for a given lesson. Users can drag highlighted text, images, or entire web pages into one of the buckets, and the material is automatically formatted and saved within the second part of the application, the Teacher Portfolio. The portfolio supports educators in using their collected resources to create lessons to teach and to share with the community.
