"1, 2, 3. Math Resources for Free!"

have been fortunate enough to see many resources created by the thousands of willing educators using Twitter. However in my opinion there is a strong case for using hashtagging more systematically, so that we better organise and structure the resources, ideas and thoughts we all have.

Welcome to the Maine Content Literacy Project's Technology, Literacy, and Content (TLC) site. TLC contains a collection of unit exemplars that were designed to strategically utilize technology and literacy instruction in order to support and deepen content area understanding.  The site includes units for elementary, middle, and secondary school students that provide examples of effective literacy and technology integration in the core content areas of Social Studies, English Language Arts, Math, and Science.  Each unit contains unit plans, lesson plans, resource materials, instructional tools, and exemplar videos.    The units, lessons, videos, and resources are free to use by schools for instruction or professional development.  

Richard Byrne's Favorite Tech Resources for Teachers Why aren't the lesson plans that used to work so well, not working now? Technology alone is not going to rehabilitate our lesson plans. However, when used correctly technology can improve our lesson plans and in turn our students' learning experiences. The pages in the left-hand column will take you to free technology tools and resources that have been reviewed on Free Technology for Teachers.

"The growth of the Internet has provided more and more people the ability to read books that normally they would not have access too and has provided valuable tools to assist in learning to read as well. There are several Text-to-Audio websites that make hearing typed text easier as well as website to make annotating text easier as well. Hopefully you will find a resource in this list that helps your students read, provides an extension on what you read, or provides ideas to teach reading to your students."

"Educational Technology Guy In this blog, I talk about educational technology, educational theory, educational pedagogy, and other topics related to these. I teach Physics and EMS classes, so some times I'll talk about those specific areas. I'll also discuss 21st Century Skills and Education. I explore free educational technology resources, ways to integrate technology into the classroom, professional development, project based learning, and tips and resources for new teachers."

Welcome to Math Matters, where we employ 21st century learning tools and methodologies to help make math relevant and fun again for both you and your students. This 30-segment video resource focuses on ninth grade Pre-Algebra and Algebra. What makes this unit different from most? It revolves around the world of off-road motorcycle racing. Team HotChalk worked with a group of young HotChalk-sponsored cyclists, videotaping them jumping off ramps along dirt bike tracks and racing up the golden summer hills of a ranch overlooking the ocean in Central California. Courtesy of math teachers Jason Dyer (Pueblo High School, Tuscon, AZ), who scripted out the 'real world' algebra problems, and John Villavicencio (Berkeley High School, Berkeley, CA), who explains the step-by-step solutions in each segment, we are bringing you our first homemade model of YouTube-style learning, "Off-Road Algebra." Our hope is that you'll try out this unit with your class, and let us know what you think. We'd like you to be active participants in helping to shape the digital resources we feel are at the heart of learning in the new century.

"When it comes to using web resources with our students, time plays a decisive role.It is next to impossible for a busy teacher restricted by curriculum constraints, day to day lesson preparations, assignment corrections, to mention but a few of his chores, to effectively search the web and find the adequate resources to share with his/ her students. Most people just do not have the time to learn all these technologies and some educators pick just one or two websites of interest and start exploring them."
