    I first heard about this from my Eng 150 Librarian, but was reminded of it the other day. If you love to read and are always looking for good books it is awesome! I noticed Professor West even has a link on the class website. Enjoy!

    I think there are probably a lot of you that already subscribe, but I've recently joined and I love having a way to keep track of the books I've read. I highly recommend it.

    It's a great way for English teachers and students to keep track of the books they've read and be able to remember them. It's also a great way to share what books you've read. You can makes groups and have discussions, too.

Stimulating Critical Thinking through a Technological Lens - 0 views

  •  
    Stimulating critical thinking using technology has the potential to create more in depth understanding of science and math content by students when engaged in learning activities which integrate in-class and on-line technology resources. Technology tools support stimulation of both inquiry-based and critical thinking skills by engaging students in exploring, thinking, reading, writing, researching, inventing, problem-solving, and experiencing the world outside their classroom. This is accomplished through learning content through the lens of video to multimedia to the internet (Using Technology to Improve Student Achievement, NCREL, 2005).

Unexpected Benefit of Having a Facebook Page for your Courses - 0 views

  •  
    I think this is really neat and I agree with it. My Creative Writing/IB English 11-12 teacher from high school has a facebook page, a personal one, and she is friends with alot of her teacher friends, current students and student alumni. Not only do we get to keep in touch with her, but she also asks our opinion on how to run the class, how to make it better, becuase we have been there before. She has also issued a challenge to all her alumni and teacher friends to keep track of how many books we have read this year, and I am now in my mid-twenties. Thanks to her, I've kept on reading and writing, all because we are friends on facebook.

Free Technology for Teachers: 5 Tools to Create and Administer Quizzes Online - 0 views

  •  
    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. I think this is a great way to use technology to give a quiz to students especially on homework reading. That way as a teacher you can save time in class that can be used for further learning.

      When reading this poem called Radio by Laurel Blossom, what are the devices that the author uses in writing with so many brakes and very choppy sentences. What happens when she does this? How does you as a reader feel when reading this and why?
