    I like this idea. I think that there are some great things I could do with this site, when I get some extra time!!! This is a great site and could really go outside the box of our classroom.

    A Wiki to share lesson plans and look for curriculum ideas. A quick search generates many options, downloadable and ready to go!

    This wiki is an open education resource that allows you to connect with other educators around the world and access to free resources. In order to download free materials you are required to join the wiki. It looks like a great resource for classroom teachers of any level or content area. There were even special interest groups you could join such as STEM, New Teachers, Technology Integration, and many more. Lots and lots of resources to look through!

    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 for my classroom. It provides many resources for teachers including lesson plans to implement into their teaching. Do you believe the resource is mostly for teacher use, student use, or both? Explain your perceptions constructively. I believe it is mostly for teacher use as a means of gathering resources to implement into teaching. Are you aware of any simililar resources that should be considered? If so, what are those resources. I have seen websites like this, including teacherspayteachers.com and smartboard.com.

    Great resource! Although it states K-12, I think many of the ideas can be re-tooled for higher education also. It is so great to have the tools so readily available. Why try to reinvent the wheel? This resource shares great, tested ideas, and as you said, downloadable and ready to go!

    What a great resource! Thanks for sharing it with us. I will be able to use this resource as I create and plan my themed units for the year. I really like that I can search by theme and grade and then tie that directly to the core. This resource is primarily for teachers as it pertains to planning for instruction.

    Google Earth is an instructional tool that I use often as a social studies teacher.  However, it can be used across content areas.  For example, it can be used to highlight the geographic connections to the settings of novels, or to take students on virtual field trips to science museums.

    I love Google Earth. I think it's an updated version of some of the tools I used growing up. It can really give students that great virtual tour of the Earth that is irreplaceable unless they actually go there. I like your idea of using it in multiple content areas. It really has so many great opportunities for learning!

    I agree with you that this is a great tool that is something that can really enrich student learning. I can definitely see myself at most grade levels using this tool one way or another. I would be interested in experimenting more with the program and finding creative ways to implement it into lessons.

    I really enjoy using Google Earth in the classroom. The capabilities of Google Earth and Google Maps (especially with the most recent update) give my students a chance to see places they may never get to see in their lives. I think we are going to spend more time focusing on the use of Google Earth or Maps in my upcoming Global Studies classes.
