LiveBinders Stories

As the Director of C&I with the NC New Teacher Support Program (NC NTSP), I have enjoyed developing binders for professional development, programmatic curriculum and protocols, case study development and much more.

The reactions from the users and my collaborators have been great. When I have presented the binders at meetings, people have been impressed with the possibilities for arranging sets of links.

LiveBinders has been a game-changer for us, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. The shelves, binders, and tabs make it easy for our audience to get a sense of the range of resources that are available on any one topic.

LiveBinders had just come out, and I was so excited because it was better than just a list kind of thing.

The key to the success of using LiveBinders is to add, organize, and update evidence on a regular basis. Our action plan, along with documenting evidence in the LiveBinders template, helps to maintain our focus towards continuous improvement. LiveBinders makes it so easy!

After I created my own LiveBinders template, it felt like I’d “automated” my meeting preparation routine and was able to reclaim hours of my work day.

As a teacher, I absolutely love the ways I have found to use LiveBinders!

LiveBinders was conceptually easy for people to grasp–you can think of it like a physical binder that you put on the internet and use it basically the same way.

This binder has become the go-to binder for my content area pre-service teachers, as well as, teachers who participate in my content area reading/writing workshops. As I learn new ways to engage students' comprehension of their content-related texts, I file ideas in the appropriate tab in my binder. (How did I ever file information before the "LiveBinder It" became an integral part of my life?)

Nice, Nice, Baby (LiveBinder’s) (A parody of "Ice, Ice, Baby") Alright stop, collaborate and listen LiveBinders-the perfect invention Something grabs my attention on the net Need to save it easily, yes, you bet. Create a Binder and stash that link Coordinate the pages so my stuff’s in sync To the extreme, I rock the net like Al Gore Light up the binder, saving objects galore...

What started out as a way to collect and demo websites for a presentation, has now become an obsession. I originally put together my Free Technology Tools for Teachers LiveBinder for a presentation I was doing. I wanted a way to easily demo several websites and I also wanted my audience to have something to refer to after the presentation was over...

We really appreciate LiveBinders and how much they enhance our productivity at a time when we don't really know from one day to the next if we're working from home or in the office. It has really been invaluable to our organization, so thanks so much!
