    This site gives examples where school reform has been very effective. This site would be good to use with other teachers and administrators to identify what high performing schools do differently.

    Hi, I found this listing to be quite unique! In the "About Us" area of the web site I noticed this is funded by the George Lucas foundation! Soooo, interesting because "George Walton Lucas, Jr. (born May 14, 1944) is an American film producer, screenwriter, director, and entrepreneur" (Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Lucas). He is credited with the films Star Wars, THX1138, and American Graffiti. All are excellent narratives scripted with no boundaries. Like his foundation moving education into an informative learning arena is also similar to the TIM matrix of building blocks and learning styles. At first I was tentative to give this a thumbs up due to its project based learning systems that the site endorsed. However, on second looks, it is an integration of tools and strategies for learning including independent thinking and responsibility skills for students. Kool....

    Twenty Tips for Creating a Safe Learning Environment

    I like this resource. It is similar to a book mark I added. Cyber-safety and computer usage in the classroom is often over looked. Most parents and/or students usually have to sign an agreement (and staying within those perimeters) establishing authorized boundaries for technology usage. However, some students do not realize many adverse issues that affect usages of the computer and internet.

UNI Technology Web 2.0 Classrooms Free

    This is like YouTube, but for teachers. Most of the content is safe for the schools and is beneficial because it is what other teachers around the world are doing. This collaborative measure is going to increase communication among teachers both nation and world wide. This web 2.0 tool is one of the better ones I have seen because it is what teachers are experiencing in their classrooms.

    Teacher Tube is pretty popular, and for good reason. It can be very risky to search YouTube to find a video for the first time in the middle of a lesson, but using Teacher Tube takes the worry away. The material is usually always safe to use, although searching before hand is still a good idea!

    Place for Interactive Whiteboard Lesson Plans
  • rcordes1961 on 02 Jun 12
     
    This site could be very useful and time saving for teachers that have interactive whiteboards in their classrooms. This resource is mainly for teachers use as it provides resources the teacher can use in his/her classroom for students. My knowledge is very limited on interactive whiteboards so I am not aware of any similar resources. I do believe this resources would be extremely beneficial for a teacher who recently had a interactive whiteboard installed in his/her classroom. Great site Joel, thanks for sharing.

    Interactive white boards and SMART Boards are becoming an incredibly prevalent piece of technology within our classrooms. This site would be extremely helpful for those teachers with this piece of technology in their classrooms. Since these boards have so much to offer many teachers would not know how to use them except as a glorifed screen projector. In this site are sites that give details of games and templates a teacher could use, how to take care of the board, lessons plans, and most importantly training and tutorials for how to use the them. This last one I think is the most important feature of the site because teachers will not use these boards unless they know how to. These boards are primarily for the teachers to use with their students, however I have seen cases where the students were given the opportunity to use them. Other resources that could go with these boards are ipads. Ipads have the ability to hook up with these boards which gives the teachers other apps to use with the board.

    I first want to say that I agree that this site will help teachers become better teachers by using this site. As I look at myself, I don't think this site will help me, but this is because I have a fundamental issue with IWBs. The problem I have with IWBs is that they promote teacher-centric instruction. Typically, if the teacher decides to use any of the features of the IWB, they use it to replicate current practices. For example, I worked with a school who held up a Kindergarten calendar activity as the most effective teacher using the IWB. However, this activity looked identical to the paper based activity that was sitting in the back of the room. So while students appear to be engaged, it is novelty engagement which eventually wears off. So for me, IWBs need to be able to bring something new to the table, and really they haven't yet to my knowledge. Creating flip charts or notebooks is great, but really if the goal is to be student centered, IWBs don't get it done. I'll step down from my soapbox now... This resource is certainly one that will be used by the teacher, since this is a lesson planning website. Promethean Planet is another great resource for finding lessons to use on your IWB, but beware. There are many good lessons, but a large number of bad ones. I'd find one that looks good and then make it better by personalizing it to you and your students' needs.

    I must admit, I have no experience with interactive whiteboards. However, I thought this site would be an extremely useful resource for teachers utilizing this technology in their classroom. It provides several activities, lesson plans, and much more!
  • Amanda Harris on 05 Jun 12
     
    FINALLY! Someone has created a website about how to use SmartBoards. I have gone into too many classrooms where the teacher does not utilize this awesome technology because it simply "doesn't fit into the lesson plan". This is a great find and I am glad you shared it with us! Thanks Joel!
  • Chase Piper on 05 Jun 12
     
    I couldn't agree more with Amanda! This site is definitely helpful, and I will have to pass it along. Thanks a lot for sharing this with us.

  • Amanda Harris on 05 Jun 12
     
    I found this website in my searching for some web 2.0 tools and thought it was great as well. Not many teachers know what some of the new technology terms means, so providing them with the definition would be great. I also liked that it provided links to the technology integration. I have a friend who is a math teacher in Des Moines who is the only teacher in the school who uses Moodle because noone else has the guts to try it. Thanks for sharing!
