One strategy for teaching science concepts is through the use of student developed newsletters. This approach involves students in the learning process as they research information, write articles, and present these articles in an individual or class newsletter format. This newsletter project helps students improve their writing skills as they learn how to write in science.

I really enjoyed this article and though it does not specifically deal with education I thought it would be a good article to share.

good article on current internet access for needy families and the effects on school.

Good article. I had spent some time working as volunteer at a Title 1 school and they had iPads in most of the classes.

I stumbled on this article and thought it was very interesting. I think it's important to keep these things in mind when bringing technology into the classroom, not to discourage you from doing it, but to help you navigate through the problems that may come from it.

I thought this was an awesome article, because it tells you five tools that teachers can use to create quizzes online. I don't know about you, but to me giving a quiz online sounds ten times cooler and more fun for students than a plan old paper quiz in class.
