INSTTECH 4131 & 5131: Technology in Education (Fall 2012)

This would be a great resource for teachers to use with students. So many possibilities! It would be a perfect fit when learning about landforms in social studies.

Andi, Way cool site! I hadn't heard of this before. I can see where it would be of good use in the classroom. Lots of multimedia activity going on. Thanks for sharing.

Hello, Andi, and thanks for sharing. This is a great website, and I'm somewhat ashamed as a geography teacher that I didn't already know about it. I use Google Earth all of the time, and this website will supplement that well. I'll present this as well to our world history teachers in 6th grade as a potential resources as well. Thanks again.

Great article to share with Tech Cadre. We are working towards implementing GoogleDocs at school and this would be a great article to share.

Richard Byrne provides tutorials and information on free resources for use in the classroom.

An article giving the best 2.0 tools of 2011 chosen by educators for educators. As a teacher you can use this article to choose those best fitting your needs.

Ashley, Great article that states many great ideas for educators. We are always looking to new and unique ways to bring different things into the classroom. This is a great source to help spread the word of things that work well for others that may for you. We are also looking to throw away things that don't and use new things that may - each situation is different and unique. Thanks for sharing this site

This site has an enormous amount of information about apps and how they can be used in the classroom. Not only does it list the apps but it gives you suggestion for lessons and activities.

Excellent source for gaining an understanding of Copyright and Fair Use

Great resource for teacher to keep up to date regarding copyright and fair use. This reminded me of the video by Eric Faden of Bucknell University, "A Fair(y) Use Tale," I use with students when we begin talking about copyright and fair use. After looking through this site I shared the bookmark to this video with the group. Thanks for the great resource!

BlamSpot - Blog by Bill Lammers, a Language Arts and Theater Technology teacher at George Washington High School in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. An insightful, creative, and humorous look at education and life.

I love the BlamSpot, he has such a great way of presenting information, awesome sense of humor.

It's like a comic just for teachers! It's nice to see that Bill Lammers is from Cedar Rapids. His ideas are presented in logical and originals ways. The September 14 post on creativity is particularly refreshing. This seems like the kind of blog I could get used to checking in on every once in a while. Thanks for sharing!
