Mural.ly is a a free (Pro-Version with additional features available) tool that allows you to "stick" images, web-clips, documents in your google drive, shapes, stickers, and backgrounds, to name a few options, onto a board.
This is a great tool for brainstorming, collecting research, creating info-graphics putting together final presentations to display student work... There are really endless possibilites for this great tool in the classroom. You can even create a guided walkthough of your board once you have 10 items. This turns Mural.ly into a presentation tool similar to Prezi.
A simple drag and drop interface makes creating a board quick and easy for all. Integration with Google, makes it easy for students in Google Apps schools to sign in and begin collaborating. The video at the bottom of this post shows just how easy it is to use Mural.ly.
With the free version their are some limits. You cannot print or download your creation, but you can share the link or embed your board on a webpage. (See the amazing work I created in just 2 minutes!)
Other great features are the live feed from the board that allows teachers to monitor student progress. I also really like the image search from Google built right in.
Definitely another great tool every teacher should add to their digital tool-kit.
