Fostering a better understanding of how students use technology and to engage students, teachers and administrators in a conversation about technology.
Assisting teachers and administrators in understanding how students use technology both in and out of the classroom.

How to put OER's in action. A great Science tool!
-
Science is one of my favorite subject and I thought this resource was great! As a teacher I can see myself using . This for my future classroom. I have not seen any similar resources and i think this offers great items. -
Christa, My overall first impression about this resource is what an amazing science tool! I especially love this resource because it not only speaks to my understanding of being a science major, but also as a hopefully becoming a science teacher as well. I completely agree that this resource will for sure be used in my future classroom, as well as even possibly passing it down my future students and maybe even one day to my future student teachers. I personally believe that this resource can be used for both teachers as well as students. My reasoning behind why it can be used for both is because how teachers can learn from the viable information, or even teach the students science in a different way that they possible different even think of before. As well as students can learn from the material, on top of what the teacher has taught them in the classroom. I am currently not aware of any other similar resources, but I will make sure to keep my eye out for any more just like this one in the future. Overall, this resource is extremely valuable and easy to access.

Wow, love the extensive lists and all of the ideas they have here. It helps to keep them all together on this site so I can remember where to look when I want to variety of ideas for something. Whenever I feel like I want to change up a lesson or add something "spicier" to it, I often turn to something-tech related, so now I can turn here. Thanks! I think this could be helpful for any teachers looking to add a little spice to their lessons. I always "pin" stuff like that, too, to keep all of my ideas collected together. -
I love the part of this article that encourages educators to think of a lesson that needs some life and then to look at web 2.0 tools! Also there is a link that brings you to effective communication tools for web 2.0 that I found helpful. Definitely a great teacher tool so that they have a place to go to for ideas for sprucing up a lesson. Teachers are really starting to come around to ideas like this, and I see more integration in lessons everyday. Definitely check out the twitter handle!
