    Jim O'Loughlin's (of the UNI Department of Languages and Literatures) Electronic Literature class homepage. Electronic literature seems to combine technology with traditional literature and reading. This type of literature could be very revolutionary in terms of bringing new interactions into the reading experience. It also has the potential for use in a 1:1 classroom.

    Odds are pretty good that if you're talking about changes to teaching and learning that the new Read/Write Web is bringing about, many of the words you are using start with "C."

    This wiki is a resource for teachers to use to improve the education of their students. This wiki focuses on Math. I could use this wiki for personal reasons, I am a math minor and love to read up on various techniques used to teach math to elementary students. Also, students can use this wiki as a resource and medium for projects as well.

    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!

    I found this article very interesting. Engagement and classroom management are two aspects of teaching that always use improvement, and can become tricky in 1-1 situations. Using Twitter is not something I would thing would help engagement, but I would certainly like to try after reading this article

    This is a web 2.0 tool that allows one to upload Powerpoint presentations to the web for accessibility. I'll use this is teaching, presentations, and professional development training!

    This is an awesome tool that teachers and students can use to share their knowledge with others. I have already used this to help my godson with some of his music theory, because the slide shares are searchable, so you can share with others, and view other people's contributions. I will use this in my English classroom to establish historical/literary contexts for literature before my students start reading.

    One of my favorite blogs about educational technology. Not only does it give reviews for apps and accessories, but it also gives the educational spin, as the blog is run by educators!
  • Min Zhang on 13 Nov 11
     
    This blog gives a lot of ideas about using iPad in education as well as introduces some interesting educational apps. For teachers who want to incorporate iPad in their class settings, the blog is worth reading.

    Vicki Davis, who runs the Cool Cat Teacher blog, is also active on Twitter and posts insightful tweets.

    This is a great blog, it is also one that is posted daily. This makes it extremely useful and worth my time to check. She has so many resources for any type of technology out there. This is blog is designed for teachers but is useful for students in the college of education.
  • Alison Leytem on 13 Nov 11
     
    Vicki Davis is a pioneer for using online applications and Web 2.0 with students. She is a superwoman! I agree with Hailey, this blog is extremely useful for teaching candidates, because it provides us with real life examples (Vicki's students and the FCP) of how online education is working! I think this resource would prove more useful to teachers because it discusses many different things that a teacher might face, and she also relates personal stories for examples. It kind of gives us some perspective on what we might expect when using web apps and online learning in the classroom. Angela Maeirs' education blog is a similar type of blog, and both women are incredibly inspiring teachers.
  • John Hubbard on 14 Nov 11
     
    I like how there are daily posts to the website. As a teacher candidate i would consider using this site a lot in the future.
  • Mikael Rein on 14 Nov 11
     
    I have been following this blog for a little over a year now. I feel like this blog is an excellent resource for teachers. This blog shows educators how they can incorporate these new applications or tools into their own teaching. This is one of the best educational blogs that I have ever come across.
  • Joe Johnson on 14 Nov 11
     
    This is the first time I have seen this blog. I believe this is a great way for educators to learn new ways to incorporate new tools into their classrooms. It seems to update often, and I plan on viewing this resource in the future, because of the interesting topics that are being blogged about.

    I've been following this blog and I also follow her on twitter. She has some great ideas and I really enjoy reading her posts.
