As I want to teach in Japan, this is the blog I will be subscribing too. Very interesting topics on here.

This site, The Cool Cat Teacher, was very appealing to me. There is a great layout of useful information for technology, assessment, lesson plans, etc for multiple grade levels and content areas. This particular podcast stood out to me this week as I'm getting prepared for our Data Team meeting at my school next week. I also found it interesting in our content this week that online learning is perceived to be more individualized. In that case, being able to take data and use it to drive the direction of your classroom learning is very important.

A very interesting blog with tons of ideas about using tech in the classroom and ideas to keep you on the cutting edge in your classroom. Who would have thought to use Pinterest in the classroom...

Very cool tool that lets you automatically integrate common core into your lesson plans. And it's FREE!

Welcome to the website for The Cool Teacher Podcast, a weekly audio podcast produced and distributed by two VERY cool teachers--Barbara Schroeder and Chris Haskell, from Boise State University. Barbara and Chris are teachers and geeks--constantly on the cutting edge of technology tools for teaching and learning.

From our very own Barbara Schroeder! She discusses the possibility of using Google + to replace her current, tired LMS

Great daily education and technology news with many resources and links to new edtech sites as well as general insights on teaching..

I love how this is so user friendly. The material is right at your hands. The wordbress is laid out very nicely. The information she provides to teachers is excellent.

Very nice resources for those looking to integrate SAMR best practices into their classrooms!

This blog was a very helpful resource

Check out Loom, a free cloud-based screen recorder. Loom has no limits on their free license regarding the length of video or how many videos you can upload. There are no watermarks on videos either. The interface is very similar to YouTube and allows for setting different levels of privacy. This could be a great solution for your students who might create video.

There are many free and paid tools to resize photos but this tool is very handy when you have a folder full of images that need to be resized all at once.

This is from Edutopia and offers some very well thought out/organised ways of managing or facilitating different types of online discussions. It provides strategies for certain types of objectives, as well as examples for different content areas.

This is a resource guide by Edutopia about discussion boards.

My district adopted Schoology last year and I have been one of the trainers so this blog has been very helpful.
