This is a great teaching resource for History teachers. It shares some great ideas about lesson plans, projects, activities, etc.

I found this useful website that has many links and sources for history teachers trying to incorporate technology into their classes. They seem to provide quite a bit of support. I think I will like this site.

This is a great website for history teachers. It provides a comprehensive guide to teaching history with various types of technology. It includes different links to websites that provide technological lesson plans and activities, most of which I found could be very useful in a history classroom. The site also gives ideas on creating presentations and using multimedia in the classroom. Another great feature the site provides is the ability to discuss and collaborate with other history teachers - it provides blogs, Wikis, and even Google docs.

This is a great site I found that talks about teaching Latin.

The top five search tools for finding Flickr images are designed to help teachers and students locate just the right image for use in any subject area and project. Without these tools finding the right image on this image hosting site is often an impossible, or at least a tedious, task. The value of this site is its ability to provide digital pictures which are often impossible for a teacher to obtain any other way. Like everything else on the internet, trying to find something is like trying to find a needle in a haystack. This where the top five search tools become valuable resources for teachers and students trying to find images comes into play. These search engines are specifically designed to search the more than three billion pictures on the Flickr hosting site.

This is a great site for English teachers with ideas for teaching literature, writing and grammar with and through technology.

This site gives advice on using Nintendo Wii to teach different physical fitness curriculum. Not helpful for my content area, but very interesting way to use this technology in an educational way.

I really love this blog site because it is all about teaching those special students in your classrooms whose needs are quickly met, but who get bored easily with the mundaneness of school. This is a big issue I've struggled with myself--trying to keep my gifted students fully active and participating in everything we do--and I have already found several helpful hints on this site. It includes some neat ideas for technology inclusion, as well. The more educated we are about the diversity of our students and their specific needs, the better we can meet those needs and educate our students with a whole range of abilities.

From Allison--great site of instructional videos

State testing requirements

I don't know if anyone else has had trouble finding out what you need to do if you are planning on teaching in another state. This site is the test that Utah uses, but it also lists the requirements for other states' tests and has links to their licensing websites.

For those going into Social Studies, this site has many resources and links to lesson plans and helpful history websites.

This site is a really good reference for teacher so they can promote literacy. I know this is a technology class but as teachers we need to make sure our students can read well. Otherwise they won't be able to make use of the technology.

This website is a gold mine of websites and information that is useful for teaching, and the best part is that most of it is based on classroom safe web practices.

A member of our class shared this on their blog. It's another great site for finding material with flexible copyrights that are easier for us to use and reuse on the Internet or in projects.

It is great that as teachers we can use technology to find lesson plans that contribute or assist to our own lesson plans. This site has an entire unit on The Great Depression and New Deal that involves multiple research based strategies such as cooperative learning and non linguistic representation. I actually used one of the lessons during my practicum and the kids loved it!
