Some of the best free websites and resources where you can download Microsoft templates for presentations, spreadsheets, documents and also for Visio and other Microsoft products.

Ton of free tutorials - Mac, PC and more. Great resource for students. Can help with papers, spreadsheets, presenatations and a lot more.

Live illustrations, step-by-step instructions, and video demonstration - Final products perhaps aren't as glamorous as Pageflakes or the like, but you certainly can make-do without another account/sign-in if you already do Google.

Thanks to Claudia (fceblog) for adding this tutorial to her Del.icio.us collection

Stimulating critical thinking using technology has the potential to create more in depth understanding of science and math content by students when engaged in learning activities which integrate in-class and on-line technology resources. Technology tools support stimulation of both inquiry-based and critical thinking skills by engaging students in exploring, thinking, reading, writing, researching, inventing, problem-solving, and experiencing the world outside their classroom. This is accomplished through learning content through the lens of video to multimedia to the internet (Using Technology to Improve Student Achievement, NCREL, 2005).
