I have been using this Web site as a resource since I first started in educational publishing way back in 1998. This has been a long-term and consistent source for information, ESL expert reviewers, and just general discussion around what needs to happen for English-language learners to have success in school. If you have ESL students and are not sure what to do for them, this is a great place to start and to find individuals who are willing to give tips and support your efforts.

This link will take you to a collaborative workspace that is intended to create a compilation of what technologies we should be monitoring today for creating instructional materials for tomorrow's students.

I have long been a proponent of gaming in education, if for no other reason than the fact that I like video games, whether they are educational or not. I had the good fortune to have an opportunity to work for a short while with some individuals from MIT Education Arcade (although we couldn't get a product concept together), and this reinforced my belief that gaming has the possibiity of extending learning farther outside the classroom than has been seen in a long time.

While this report is starting to get long in the tooth, I have still been able to use it as a reference a few times in making the case for adding technology products to our publishing plan at McGraw-Hil.
