Quickly Post Student Work with Embedit.in!


I was skimming over Larry Ferlazzo's blog when I came across his post mentioning Embedit.in for posting student content online. This immediately grabbed my attention since it is a question I receive a lot from teachers. Here are the highlights of Embedit.in:
  1. No registration or account is required. Embedit.in asks you to verify who you are through other popular accounts such as Google, Twitter, Wordpress, etc.
  2. Upload a document and receive an embeddable widget code to embed into your website or blog
  3. The widget allows you to scroll to see the document, zoom in, or see it full screen.
  4. You can choose to add annotations over your document before you create your widget
  5. There are privacy settings: choose whether you want the document to be downloaded, saved, or printed
  6. Finally, Embedit.in has built in analytics! Track to see how many people have viewed, saved, or printed your document and where they are from.

This is definitely a website that educators will find helpful as they build websites!
