These days it seems that I am always thinking about classroom management and how I can be better at it. I came across this website that seems really legit. A great bookmark for the diigo group.
This is a great source for dance teachers to order dvd's, vhs, and other "technological appliances" for a cheap price. It also lists the standards for dance teaching and you can post how you personally implement them.
This is a good website for future English teachers to take a look at. It gives many links to websites that can help with things like teaching poetry and grammar as well as how to make a lesson plan. It also provides the links to other teachers.
If you need to embed an audio player into your Google website, or other website, this website gives some great and simple methods. This could be useful for posting a podcast on your site.
Great example of what I think is a student video project on the Giver. An example of how video projects can be used to show student understanding of a book's themes.
A good example of a social studies video project from Brittany. The music gets too loud and distracting at one point, but if the audio was improved, I like how she gave a good analysis of a social studies topic and then showed good examples.
Guess how many social networks there are? (such as Facebook, MySpace, Goodreads, etc.). 350+ such technologies! This is an interesting list of as many of them as we know about, organized by subjects. There are some interesting student ones, geared more for university students.
Although these aren't the greatest or most entertaining resources, there are different videos that could be useful to a teacher that include training on how to use the technology that is available to them in their school.
