SendSpace for Teachers

Teachers move a lot. From meeting to meeting, duty to duty, classroom to classroom. Good teachers are prepared for just about anything, but there are those occasions where you don't have what you need. Files can be that way. You need to share one in a meeting but it's too big to email and your flashdrive is back at your desk. You end up running down the hall to get it. Not the best use of what little time you have.

SendSpace makes it easier to send, receive, track, and share large files (up to 300MB). With good teachers using more video, image, graphic, and other large files in their classrooms and then sharing them with others it's becoming essential to have easy ways to send the files back and forth.

SendSpace can accommodate a teacher's video file recorded for today's lesson and sent to a parent who's child is unable to attend class. It can also help share a zipped file of images sent to a colleague looking for updated pictures for an upcoming lesson. SendSpace can easily help share a large number of documents (also zipped together) to send to an administrator or organization as evidence for an assessment or application for an award or certification (e.g. National Board Certification).
