Today, it is impossible to imagine our educational practice without digital tools and platforms. They help us to organize, facilitate the implementation during learning processes and open up new possibilities for learning. We have compiled here some that we consider particularly useful, also from the point of view of reliability and sensitivity to rights. Some very propular apps and tools will not be found in this list for this reason.
