If you use a smartboard and live it or love it, but are not able to get one in the room with you full time this is a link for you. You can submit a lesson to smart and if you win you will get a prize package of $12,000 of goods.
Looking for a different tool look at this map. I like the tool to show students cycles of things. The one that is linked in of web 2.0 apps setup by types. This link is one that I created using the program, http://www.mindmeister.com/18887812. You also can share it, export as PDF, and Embed in to your site.
Can get lessons, flipcharts, and flash resources. Also may be used for math. The lesson are a great to start to build a lesson but are not just a download and begin to show the class, contact needs to be added to the documents to much them a lot better. Good for someone just start to use a smartboard.
Why text is only one path directed. Please share the video in the blog, because it show how textbook do not carry students' interests in mind. Also may hopefully change the mind of some teachers to get out of the text and to look another places.
The blog talks about the safety on the internet and leaving what I call a foot print of who you are. That would good practice to start in the early years of school.
David Warlick talks about how education could change if we would let it. The things we do not like now are the things that may power the classroom of tomorrow.
