UD EDU 352 Technology in Education

This website has great articles all about new ideas in the education field. 

This website has some really useful links to other websites. It concentrates on tech in the classroom and so would be a good place to look for new ideas

This is a good site for connecting with other teachers who use technology in their classrooms. 

This site has many different lesson plans on it. I like this site because it actually has people rate the lesson plans on it, and people can explore other teacher's resources. This site will be very helpful to me because it has many different lesson plans to look for. This site also has tips to help teachers while writing a lesson plan.

This website has so many lesson plans available in all the school subjects. This will really be useful when I am a teacher to get ideas from other teachers to see what kind of activities they are doing in their classrooms.

This is a website for teachers to find lesson plans for free. I would use this website to find ideas to teach to my students. There are about 4,000 free lesson plans. You could also share lesson plans on this website!

I like this site because it is very easy to navigate through. I also like this site because it has games based on the student's grade level, which would make it easier to find games suitable for the grade a teacher is teaching. This site could be used in my future classroom because it helps to work on grammar and spelling. This site could also be used in language arts to help students if they are struggling.

I chose this site because it has many different sources for teachers to use. This site has book reviews, different types of graphic organizers, and different writing activities. For example, this sit has how to finger spell, I could use this site and find sheets to print off for the class to teach them how to finger spell. This site also has many different literacy workshops that I could use in my future classroom.

This website is another one in which students can easily share ideas with other teachers in many different ways. The resources that are offered are easy for teachers to use and informative for teachers to incorporate in their own classrooms. There is a variety of lesson plans and classroom activities that are easy to adapt to multiple classrooms and for different grade levels. It is key for teachers to interact with each other and talk about ideas that others may not think of first hand.

This website is ideal for teachers to share ideas and stay in touch with other teachers all over the world. Teachers can easily share stories of students and lesson plans that have worked for them in the past. Teachers sharing with each other is vital for the success of students. There is no need to "rewrite the book" on teaching when people have been doing it for years and years. These websites can also give teachers great insight on what is going on in schools all over the nation and possibly integrating students from other areas in lessons, such as pen pals or Skyping in the classroom.

This website focuses on showing educators different health issues to utilize in the classroom. One of the main things that caught my eye was the first link to show up: facts about drugs. Because drugs can be a huge issue in middle and high school kids today, it is important for teachers, especially in the health field, to inform kids on the serious affects that drugs can have on the body. Relating lesson plans to student's lives is key for teachers to break though with students.

This website is a great resource for teachers because it is stacked full of other resources that teacher can use. These websites have a ton of educational ideas for teachers to use in the classroom. There is even a website that helps to incorporate technology into a physical education atmosphere. The resources for both in class work and work in the field. There are also great resources for lesson plans available for teachers who may need ideas of how to portray different health issues to a classroom

This website really caught my eye because of the video aspect. It is a series that will help teachers deal with questions that students will have and how to help students understand concepts on a higher level. The videos are done by real teachers and educators. Working with high school students, especially as a new teacher in the field, can be a difficult feat and every bit of help that is available is a good thing.

This website would be very helpful for any high school science educator. The resources on this website range everywhere from science fair project ideas to fun science clips to share with students, to ACT prep questions. There is also a variety of fields of science including chemistry, biology, and earth sciences. Teachers can use these resources in the classroom daily.

This website would be helpful to teachers because it provides a variety of fun activities that will keep students interested while still teaching them the concept of social studies. These activities are different than old and tired activities and can help spice up the classroom lessons. These activities are ideal for middle school students, but could probably be altered to fit the need of students in all grade levels.

I believe that this website would be very useful for teachers. There is information in different social studies topics for every age group. By showing current news, teachers can use this as a way to make students interested in the topic of social studies and ways to incorporate current events into lesson plans. This website also have a variety of games and activities that teachers can use to make the classroom a little more fun.

Lesson Plans: I chose this website because it is a great resource to use for creating lessons. It contains thousands of pre-made lesson plans in a variety of subject areas.

This article explains why collaboration tools are so useful for teachers in the classroom. There are nine easy tools to use and descriptions for each. This is a quick, easy way for teachers to get a good idea of how these tools work. Some of these technological tools can be difficult to maneuver and figure out, but when the websites are given these short overviews, it automatically makes it easier to figure out and work with.
