    EdTech Teacher Resource starts with the learning goals, provides tool suggestions, descriptions, examples, usefulness ratings, and ease of use ratings. This website is an excellent resource for any teacher integrating technology in the classroom.

    I like the way this site is set up for ease of use. There are so many great links to whatever you may want to try or continue building upon in your 'tech' endeavors for your classroom. This is a excellent resource for all grade levels!
  •  
    I really like this resource. I especially like how it asks you your goals and has solutions that could help with your lessons. Great for integration!
  •  
    Wow! Great find. Like Andi, I like how it asks you your goals and then takes you straight there and then has ratings. I can see this being a great easy way for teachers to learn some new ways to introduce technology into lesson plans.

Partnership for 21st Century Skills - 1 views

  •  
    Partnership for 21st Century Skills is a good site to check out initiatives and goals for our future students.  Check out the resources tab or look at different state initiatives.
  •  
    This website is really a great resource for use in a future classroom, but not really a tool or something that can be immediately applied tomorrow. This is a complicated model that takes time and effort to restructure a curriculum to fit. This resource is mainly for teacher use and feedback because it outlines what the Partnership for the 21st Century Skills are and how they apply to the classroom. There are a few similar resources out there like this one, but overall this one is the best! It outlines specifically, with research attached, what needs to happen and how we can transform education. Interesting ideas and beneficial thoughts, but really hard to implement!

A is for app: iPads change landscape of learning - 0 views

  • But after seeing how easy the iPads are to use -- kids become their own experts by getting answers to their questions through YouTube videos or educational apps -- Pole changed her tune. Now she plans to get schooled on the iPad herself.

      This makes me wonder what they are really finding out answers to.  Also, is that the only thing they are using the iPads for?  Really!

      "More fun" that sounds like the iPads are being used for educational purposes for sure!  They must be a tool that connects directly to the curriculum.  Either the student does not get this or the reporter failed to understand why they are using iPads.

      No surprise there with the designation, but really - most are purchasing these devices without the proper pieces in place. Sad that it has taken the ed world by storm, but there is no idea how to actually include this in instruction...read on!

    This is a great article looking over the iPad craze and the Flipped Education idea in Minnesota schools.  It still makes me wonder what we are trying to teach out students by using these devices - What is the educational goal?  This article also points out the need for an investment in teacher training as an essential part of a technology program.  Check out the sticky notes and highlighting for more information.

    This website is a marketplace for educators. It is a resource to get materials of various kinds to be used in the classroom. This can range from classroom management, labels, lesson plans, paperwork used in the classroom, forms, etc. Some items are free and some must be bought. These materials can be printed and used or be used as framework for a teacher who is looking to create their own materials but doesn't know where to begin and can use these as a template.
  •  
    I have been to this site and there are some great things on here, but I have a little bit of a problem with teachers selling their lessons. If this is what you want to do then create something that can be sold commercially. I am not really sure why this strikes me as wrong but it just doesn't sit right somehow. I would gladly share my ideas with others, but if I want to make money off my ideas I would go to the work to present it in a manner that those purchasing would have some assurance that what they are purchasing has some educational value, meets goals and standards and has been tested and refined. Personal opinion, like I said at the beginning there is great free stuff on here too, check it out and see what there is to offer.

Teachers Love SMART Boards - Resources for the SMART Board classroom - 2 views

  •  
    A great resource for educators who use SMART Boards.  The articles on here are written by teachers and for teachers that use these boards.  Lots of good articles and constantly updated as well.

    SMART Boards can be great if used properly with some awesome ideas...or they can be a huge waste of money. This group of educators has done an awesome job really laying out some new ideas and different templates to use with SMART Boards. Check them out!
  •  
    This looks like a very useful resource relating to SMART Boards. I know that I have really neglected digging into all of the resources out there for my SMART Board, so I think if I set a goal to explore sites like this on a regular basis, it'll give me good ideas for how I could be using my board for more than just a glorified YouTube player. The reviewers of the various templates and activities do a good job discussing what does/does not work or why they liked them. I have not researched many SMART Board sites, but look forward to finding more.
  •  
    This is very good tool to use with SMART Boards, this will be beneficial for teachers to use in classrooms. It will make it easy and fun for students to follow their teacher.
  •  
    Thank you for sharing this with us. We are are relatively new to SMART Boards and this seems to be a good one for teachers to be able go out and find material that they may use in the classroom. There always seem to be more material for K-8 than for 9-12 areas. Great sources for teachers to find tips also
  •  
    This is a great resource! I really like the section that has SMART Board training on it. A lot of teachers in the classroom don't really know how to use these resources to their fullest extent and by having it so they can teach themselves online is great. I would use it if I had a SMART Board in my classroom.
