Brainly

Brainly is a interesting new social network for helping students w/ homework.  This is a great place for students of all ages to find and answer questions that students from around the world are posting.  What makes Brainly so nice is how easy it is to track how many questions/answers a student has asked and to search by subject.  Also, there is a nice point system that adds an element of "Gamification" and motivates students to return and participate on the network.  My only concern especially for the younger kids is that an email address or FB account is needed to sign up, so this might not make it ideal for Elementary aged kids.  Also, I'm going to inquire on their filtering policy to make sure that all their content remains educational.

I recommend checking out Brainly by clicking here!!!
