Ed-tech administrators and educators looking for original and third-party web resources can use the educational Technology Clearinghouse as an online launch pad. The tech Ease resource, for example, is a self-help guide that shows how to use many common technology tools in the classroom. Similarly, the No String Attached option offers a variety of video demonstrations about how to use wireless technology and laptop computers. In addition to the tech-development pagegs, FCIT's site offers portal space that hosts thousands of clip-art images and PowerPoint presentation files that can be reused by teachers under a friendly license, which allows them to be used for free for educational and other noncommerical purposes.

t's the 21st century and I'm sure your school district has been embracing technology. With budget cuts, however, can your school keep up with the need for new and updated computers? I work in Bergen County (N.J.) where we have the highest property taxes in the nation, and yet this fall I'm not sure whether or not our media center will see more computers for our students. (Thank you, Governor Christie) I know of districts where every student has their own laptop. Not where I am. Still, I try to use what we have to prepare our students for when they graduate and go out into the world. No matter what they will do in their career, whether it's an auto mechanic or a lawyer, they will need these digital skills. If you are still wary about technology, it is time to jump into the water. We don't want you and your students left behind.
