Love it! I'd like to have something like this in my district. Thank you for giving me a place to start!

This page allows practitioners in service-oriented organizations-such as libraries, schools, community centers, community colleges, and workforce training centers-to find digital literacy content. These trusted groups can, in turn, reach into their communities and teach residents the skills today's employers need.

Some key goals for literacy are reading comprehension, being able to identify main ideas, and summarization skills. There are many excellent practices that can help students develop these abilities. Recently I came across a creative technique called " Text Reduction Strategy" ( see the article here by Andrea Heick at TeachThought).

Today's students must be prepared to thrive in a constantly evolving technological landscape. Zip codes and borders no longer determine the learning opportunities, skills and careers that students can access. The ISTE Standards for Students are designed to empower student voice and ensure that learning is a student-driven process of exploration, creativity and discovery no matter where they or their teachers are in the thoughtful integration of ed tech.

I love this tool. It allows me to store my articles online, highlight, draw or write right on it, share with others. Allows for easy sign in with google, great for my students' research and close reading online skills. "Free PDF editor, online in your browser, desktop or mobile. Edit & share PDFs for free, send faxes from the browser - even on iPhone or iPad. No software, no commitment, & no strings attached."

Thanks for posting this! It's really helping me out.
