Here is a really nice site that I came across. It is a free site called Blendspace by Tes. If you are looking for a way to create a blendspace in your classroom with little or no devices with students, check out this site.

Check out these engaging usage ideas from Blendspace. If you like what you see, go to Blendspace by Tes and join for free there's more to checkout once you are logged in.
