    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!

    I tend to be more hesitant about including technology, and this article brings up some positive considerations to balance many other things I've read. Remembering that what best meets the need of the child (in terms of technology/specialists/extra-curricular activities and on and on) and supports his/her development has to be the primary consideration.

    This article is written by an adult with autism discussing use of tablets with children with Asperger's.  Reading from one with first hand experience sheds a little different light on it for me.

    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.
