Excellent discussion groups for K-12 educators!

Google for Educators Discussion Group. We'll be using this group to keep you updated on Google's K-12 Education initiatives, but our real hope is that this will become the home of a vibrant community of educators. We encourage you to use this space to start discussions with fellow teachers. Excellent lesson plans are shared in the "Submit your Lessons" group for using Google tools in the classroom. Lots of great resources for teachers.

This is a great and growing compilation of web 2.0 tools for educators that provides links and brief descriptions of the tool--organized in very useful categories. It's a wiki so anyone can add to the resources once you join the group.

Tons of excellent links and resources for web 2.0 tools! Web 2.0 definition: the next generation of the internet where the content of the web is created or edited by end-users (either individually or collaboratively) rather than those few geeky computer nerds. Further, these sites often allow collaboration, sharing, and assimilation to bring about exchanges of ideas from many different perspectives in the form of text, photos, videos, and/or other multimedia components.
