By Wendy S. Bray elling children that they can learn from their mistakes is common practice. Yet research indicates that many teachers in the United States limit public attention to errors during math- ematics lessons (Bray 2011; Santagata 2005). Some believe that drawing attention to errors publicly may embarrass error m

Great website for educators to access royalty free clip art, lesson plans, clip media, and presentations.

This website is AMAZING. It has clip-art, photographs, presentation images, maps, lessons, and answers to tech questions. There are so many images available, they are free (up to a certain amount, but it is very generous), it tells you exactly how to cite them, and it has options for file size and format. It took some clicking/digging around, but this is what led me to this site: FL DOE - Educators button at top - Curriculum, Instruction, Student Services - Instruction & Curriculum - Instructional Technology - Educational Technology Clearinghouse

I thought this article provided an interesting perspective about evaluating the use of certain digital tools based  on the type of instructional approach a teacher planned to use. The use of polyphonic teaching lends itself to the use of digital tools. 

Attached is the plan which OCPS has created for implementing Digital Classrooms. Check page 13 to see when your classroom will become "digital".

The OCPS Digital Classroom Plan provides a five-year perspective of technological enhancements.

Here's an 11 minute video explaining Brevard County's approach to integrating technology into the classroom.

This Technology Integration Matrix is the tool that is used in our Orlando local district to plan, prepare, measure, and implement digital standards based lessons.
