EDU614 Integrating Technology

Looks like a decent site for newer teachers. Liked the section on interview questions that actually supply some suggested answers - although I haven't read through them all yet.

This website has well done games and videos to help students learn about U.S. History.

Science Technology Engineering Math is where it's at! Check this out featuring the President.

This site caught my attention when I saws it listed teacher interview questions and went on from there. May be helpful to new teachers..... Edit-looks like that interview blog didn't post. Not sure why...

This podcast is all about podcasting in the classroom! It is a great resource for teachers, especially those considering implementing podcasting.

This website is the Family Center on Technology and Disability. This is a great website that provides a lot of resources (family guides, a glossary, basic information, facts sheets, discussions, and more) about assistive technology and how AT can help children with disabilities.

This website is the National Association of Special Education Teachers. I think it's a great resource for special education teachers and general education teachers. There is information about conferences, professional development, IEP development, resources, special education law, and so much more.

Great resourse for teachers starting to use more technology in their classrooms

I liked the Reading Zone Blog because it is comprised of a young English teacher's lesson ideas, book reviews, and other classroom tips. It is well organized and easy to read. I found many of her blogs useful to my own teaching.

I found this blog to be useful because it contained video and reading methods that are related to English or Reading. This blog contains helpful links to other websites and is simply formatted so that it is easy to read.

This blog is witty and entertaining while still being a good source of advice for new teachers. The author is very real and I found some of her personal reflections moving.

This is a great math site. It includes sections for activities, lessons, standards, and web links. The activities and lessons are grouped into grade levels to facilitate your search.

Great resources

So we recently interviewed (I am a dept. chair) candidate for an opening we have. Beyond the many great things one of those interviewed said, she mentioned a website called Donor Choose which even my co-English chair knew about - but apparently not me!

Teachers Guide on The Use of Graphic Organizers in The Classroom free graphic organizers Med kharbach Gone are the days when planning and thinking were done mainly by pen and paper.Technology have made it pretty much easier to think in different other ways.

This is a great blog on activating prior knowledge, so important when expecting full comprehension and engagement from students! It is amazing that the simplest things can make the biggest difference in the classroom, each student has something unique and valid to offer, we as teachers need to make sure we give them the opportunity to share what they know and discuss what they are learning.

Collaborative assessment for teachers, uses common core or other state standards, able to track students and show progress

great explanation for math concepts. Easier than Wolfram

This is a really cool website that is about an iPad trial in schools in Australia. The website provides case studies, information on the benefits of using iPads, classroom ideas, videos and pictures, and more. My favorite part of the website is that it also provides a list of great educational apps broken into different categories and subject areas.
