I love this resource! I can see at least two ways that students could use this resource successfully. First, they could use it as inspiration for finding a research topic/question that intrigues them. Second, they could use it to research a topic of interest to them. I like that there is a "wonder of the day" as well. This website is visually appealing and easy to navigate.
This site is one of my top 5 resources as a teacher. There are inspiring stories, advice, lesson ideas, etc. Check out the blog titles on the right hand side. I appreciated this article on balancing technology in the classroom and smiled at this quote: "Integrating technology doesn't have to consume your life as an educator." Ha!
