    This social networking blog by Pam Dyer has some really great infographics (think like graphics that actually provide relevant information in an educational way) that lend themselves to starting awesome classroom conversations. Talk to your students about social networking, the benefits and pitfalls of Facebook, why Instagram is taking over, and how to avoid being a terrible Twitter user. She does a fantastic job providing relevant and important information to the average consumer, but it impacts educators even more. Check it out for a good read!

    A ning (kind of like a wiki) that is all about iPads in education.  Have a cool idea?  Join the ning and submit your own.

    Great resource for ideas and collaborating with other educators regarding the use of iPads in education through blogs, tips, discussions, and videos. Great job on your "QR Code Crime Scene" video you posted to the Ning!!! Excellent example of what is possible!! I joined the Ning and will share this with teachers using iPads in our school.

    Do agree or disagree that the resource can be used efficiently in your own future classroom? Explain why or why not. I agree that this resource could be used efficiently in my classroom. I have an iPad in my classroom and this website gives great ideas of apps to use. Do you believe the resource is mostly for teacher use, student use, or both? Explain your perceptions constructively. I believe the resource is mostly for teacher use but allows teachers to find apps for student use. Teachers can find resources, download them, and then allow students to use them. Are you aware of any simililar resources that should be considered? If so, what are those resources. Yes, I have also seen websites that provide lists of apps and have included them in my own library.

    This is a great resource and one that totally is worth checking out! This is for sure a tool that can be used in the classroom. It is chalked full of great ideas and awesome tools to use in the classroom. This is mainly a tool for teacher use, but it could also be a resource for students looking for a different way to complete a project. There are many different uses of such an amazing ning like this! There are some great other Nings out there, Facebook pages, groups on LMS sites like Schoology, and other websites out there that are similar. This one is unique because of the Ning platform for sure!

    iPad technology is a new teaching tool will be used by teachers in classrooms. if will be very beneficial for both teachers and students

    I thought this resource was great and thought provoking for the educator that has access to i pads in the classroom. Not only could educators use this source but parents as well. I also agree with Randon that it has student uses as well. I agree with Randon as well that many other resources and social media pages such as facebook and twitter are available, however the creation of this site gives a different navigational system to explore.

    This is a great resource for teachers and students in the classroom. The more resources that we have the greater the level of learning can be. Teachers and students will benefit for this resource. Thanks for sharing

    Great tool to help with discussions to avoid sidebars. Allows students to make comments or ask questions that can be addressed at a later.

    Today's Meet is a great tool to use with students in the classroom and teacher's during PL Days.

    I really like this resource. It reminds me of CoveritLive, which I used before it went to a pay service. This seems very easy to use, and I look forward to finding out a way to implement this into my classroom. Another teacher at my school just the other day wanted to know an alternative to CoveritLive and now I have one. Thank you.

    I used this tool, in addition to Twitter, for technology training to introduce the idea of backchannels for K-12 administrators. They loved it.
  • Nora Warnemunde on 12 Dec 12
     
    I think this could effectively be used in a virtual classroom in my future because my students could get on with their presentation, have it available for viewing by me and his or her classmates, and I can get on and edit it if needed. I believe this resource is for both teacher and student use, as students must get on with their presentations, or the teacher could, and they could make comments and give feedback on one anothers' work. This reminds me a lot of Adobe Connect!

    This is an interesting free game to help young children to read. I am going to try this with my son who just turned 6 and is starting to learn to read. Claims to be the only site like this available but I haven't verified that. Great for teachers or parents. Adults sign up and add kids; kids are issued on password and parent/teacher can view progress.

    I have signed up for this site but have not had a chance to use it with my 5 year old yet. Looks like it has some great possibilities. I love the Free Technology for Teachers Blog as well, I have found many great things on there such as the StoryKit App for the iPad.

    This site has a lot of resources...including the Teach Your Monsters to read. Great resource for ways to include technology in your curriculum.

    A great education blog from an awesome source - CNN.  Good articles abound on this website and are easily categorized into columns as well.

    If you don't yet follow this blog on Twitter or Facebook then you should! Always some great stuff about education, schools, and well written overall. An awesome resource for a good Sunday morning read.

    This site is a great resource to help keep up on what is going on in education at all levels. I especially liked the recent article entitled, "5 Things Teachers Want Parents to Know". I really don't think this site is just for teachers but I think teachers will be the ones to use the site most. Teachers are very busy and don't always have time to read several news feeds to get our educational news, so its nice that its all right here.
