The Education Podcast Network is an effort to bring together into one place, the wide range of podcast programming that may be helpful to teachers looking for content to teach with and about, and to explore issues of teaching and learning in the 21st century.

Kansas Coaching Project from KU Center for Research on Learning. KU-CRL offers Instructional Coaching Institutes to explore issues and ideas related to this form of professional development.

This page would be helpful for librarians searching for professional development opportunities. It includes handouts to use in your library, ideas, institutes, online courses, articles about library issues, opportunities for learning, and much more! I had fun exploring this site.

This blog was started by a staff devleopment team at Austin Community College. It would be a great place for librarians to find professional development opportunities specific to libraries. The site offers information on webinar dates, library-related conferences, e-learning, etc. It is a site I want to return to so I can explore free professional devleopment opportunities for librarians!

A blog that is used to explore, exchange, and create ideas around 21st Century skills. 21st Century Collaborative is dedicated to exploring, creating and modeling global connections as a powerful means to improving teaching and learning in the 21st Century.

This site allows you to search for copyright friendly images. This site helps you to understand what type of copyright license the image exists under and how you can use it. The site allows you to explore through different tabs (Google Web, Flickr, Yahoo, etc.). My favorite is Flickr because of the images and the easy-to-understand copyright symbols and explanations.

This is an awesome site for book lovers! It allows you to browse through popular books, which I love to do, just to see what people are reading for an idea of what to read next. Then you can put books that you own on your "shelf". You can then have friends and share actual books with each other, if you live nearby. It is also a great place to read ratings on books. It then links you to Amazon and other libraries where you could check our or buy the books! You can also put your "bookshelf" on a blog to show off your interests to all your friends.

This site allows you to share the books you have read with others and let them know what you thought about it. It also lets you choose books you want to read and has the capability of letting others tell you what they thought about those books. It is a great social network for all kinds of readers.

This is the best resource ever! There are so many great videos, slidshows, songs! This site has it all and the material is wonderful to show in the classroom. The site is free and you can add your own material if you wish to share it. There are some really creative teachers out there! This will be a place you can spend hours upon hours exploring.

This site is similar to YouTube only it features videos, audios, etc. that relate more to education. This site allows you to find videos to use in your curriculum and your classroom to help students understand the material. Anyone can pick from the videos already available or you can upload your own material. Also, teacher tube has an educational blog that you can access and add to.

It's like a YouTube for educators. It has lots of fun videos.
