We're hoping that you'll add resources and share reactions with one another by commenting on one another's bookmarks. Please describe the resource that you are adding to the collection and add additional information such as the following: 1. The content area and/or grade level for which it is most appropriate; 2.Whether you have used the resource and what you liked/disliked about it; and 3.Whether there are similar resources you'd recommend. If you are currently enrolled in an MEd course, remember to tag the resource using your course number (e.g. EDTC600 or EDTC610). We encourage you to comment on one another's bookmarks, indicating your own personal reaction to the resource. Thanks for participating in this collaborative project!
