According to their website, edWeb.net is a professional social and learning network that makes it easy for anyone in the education community to connect with peers, share information and best practices, spread innovative ideas, and provide professional development.  What I like best about edweb are the awesome webinars.  They range from Digital Games & Learning: Theory & Research to Global Professional Development Opportunities for STEM Education.  The webinars are recorded so if you’re not available for the live show, watch them later.  Free professional development!

Change.org is a platform for people to start a petition to create the change they want to see.  This is a great tool to empower students to get support from a global audience about something they’re passionate about and want to see changed.  Read how a 13 year old girl started a petition on Change.org to ban plastic shopping bags in her home town in Illinois.  Can you imagine what your students will change?  Why not find out?
Note – one must be 13 years old to create an account on change.org
