    This website gives 100 free web tools for Elementary teachers. The list is organized into several different categories: 1) Organization and Collaboration, 2) Search Engines and Directories, 3) Google, 4) Templates and Lesson Plans, 5) Research and Reference, 6) Games, 7) Reading and Writing, 8) Math and Science, 9) Arts, 10) History and Social Studies, 11) Online Libraries, and 12) Activities. This is a great resource for teachers to use for instruction as well as to give to students to use for classroom work and homework.

    This looks like a great resource for anyone in education, teaching or learning. It is well organized and provides links to a lot of useful free tools. I wish I had this stuff when I was growing up.

    This looks like a great resource for elementary teachers, providing so many links in one place. It is like an annotated bibliography, presenting various resources for teachers to use, making it easy for us to navigate. Though I plan to teach in secondary education, some of these categories could still be used with high schoolers in my English classroom, especially Google and the Research & Reference resources. I think that teachers in elementary education will find this resource very useful, and I could even show it so some of my high school students so that they would have different things to explore if they were interested. I found a similar website that compiles resources from around the web, focusing on Language Arts education: http://www.internet4classrooms.com/lang_mid.htm. Here, there are citation guides, research help, online literature links, and many other great activities for the LA classroom.

    This looks like a great resource to keep on hand for teachers! I feel like it should be used mostly by teachers and they should definitely take advantage of it. Too often do teachers use the same routine every day and use stuff out of books! Why not go on the computer and research things that can spice up your classroom.

    This is a great resource for teachers to use in their classrooms to enhance learning. It has a WIDE variety of useful tools that can make learning more fun and engaging. I would recommend that the teacher scans through these options prior to opening them up to students. The teacher could select a few good ones and show them to the students to use during class or at home. I do no have any bookmarks similar to this one, but I am sure there are a lot out there that could be just as helpful. Thanks for sharing the great resource!

    This is Iowa's early intervention.  This is for children that are birth to age three.  This is early access' links and resources pages.  Having this page is help because these resources are researched before they are put onto this page.

    This would be a great resource in my future classroom because it is has well researched, reliable links to provide information on early intervention resources. Many times teachers do not have the knowledge of ability to provide an individual child with what they need. So this site can direct teachers to organizations and resources that can help that child. This site would only be used by teachers, health care providers, social service agencies, and parents. It is not designed for students learning activities or a resource for coursework. I am not aware of any other resources like this that focus on birth through age three.

    A well known positive consequence of using a wiki, is the abundance of data that accumulates about a particular topic. This journal also suggests that wikis are useful for participatory and sociological reasons. Studies show that while wikis serve to benefit qualitative research, they also encourage rich interaction between users.

    Wow, this site is a gold mine for free resources. You can navigate the website by subject (History for example) then click on sub-categories like World War I. It list free resources and the websites where you can find them. This would be a good resource for teachers or for students as the research or create projects.

    This a place where you can find TONS of blogs about technology. This can be taken advantage of by a lot of people just not students/teachers. It gives ideas/advice/every day thought on technology. It is very interesting to look at!

    This is a Wiki about gamification. There are many resources within this wiki, including media, examples, mechanics.

    Great resource Min! The gamification of education is a very hot issue right now, and I think that providing teachers with resources to help them understand what the potential of gaming in education might be, will be very beneficial to our teachers, and our students. I might use this wiki in my final paper research! :D

    A site that leads discussions, shares research and information and demonstrates best practices regarding technology so it can be used to benefit children ages 0-8 years."

    This is resource is great for early childhood teachers. The idea of using technology in this setting is hard to see but this site show you how to do effectively. It is great to see that NAEYC is has a diigo group and are doing the same thing we are doing in this class.
