About the Top 100 Tools List
During 2008, over 220 learning professionals from around the world shared their Top 10 Tools for Learning. You can view their individual lists at c4lpt.co. uk/recommended/ From these lists I compiled the Top 100 Tools for Learning 2008. You can view the entire list at c4lpt.co.uk/recommended/top100.html I have also categorised the list into related tools to create Toolset for Learning 2009.
