Educational Technology site

Lots of links here to presentations about Google tools and searching.

Launched by Common Sense Media, the nonprofit known by parents, teachers and librarians for its high quality, nonpartisan reviews and its popular Digital Literacy and Citizenship Curriculum, Graphite is the go-to platform for helping teachers make sense of an exponentially evolving number of digital learning tools. The site is not only free, it's also ad-free. The goal is to objectively and transparently review and rate educational technologies and to guide busy teachers to the best websites, games, apps and digital curricula that will augment their teaching and to relieve the time-consuming burden of searching, sorting and sifting.

Lots of resources to help educators and librarians use technology with students.  Includes great app resommendations, rubrics, resources to create class web pages, and a wealth of other technology information.

Common Sense Media is dedicated to improving the lives of kids and families by providing the trustworthy information, education, and independent voice they need to thrive in a world of media and technology.
