I used Screencast-O-Matic for my virtual demonstration on Brittanica School: Middle. This resource is a kid-friendly encyclopedia that covers any topic that you could think of as a K-12 educator. It allows for safe research to be performed by students and gives teachers a central place to find and store resources. The most exciting thing for teachers that it offers is the "Lesson Plan" and "My Content" resources. These allow for teachers to get new and creative ideas on teaching topics that they're not as comfortable with and allow for the resources to be stored in one place. As an educator, I would use this resource to gather the available resources or find new lesson plans for certain topics and assign research projects using the vast database of this encyclopedia.
