ISTE Wiki - provides links to resources for the NETS for student standards and also breaks the standards down by grade level and provides links by grade level

This Wiki has lots of good information. I am sending it to you so you can bookmark it.

The purpose of this resource is to provide "Just in Time" training through an online interface for K-12 educators based on the National Eductional Technology Standards for Teachers (NETS-T). These standards are the basic technology skills every educator should prossess. In the process, educators will develop their own skills and discuver what studetns need in order to meet the NETS for Students.

This site is really nice. Many of the things we talked about in the grad class are covered here but the really nice thing about this site is that it take the NETS-T that we used and makes a connection to Marzano's 9 (Classroom Instruction that Works) and 21 things. It is really interesting. On the home page check out the two downloads of 21things and Marzano. On the right if you click on any of those categories, tools that can be used are presented. This is definitely one you will want to save in your own diigo library.

Thanks for sharing. This is a great site.

A slideshare about web 2.0. It includes the challenges teachers face and how to overcome them to continue to grow professionally.

This site provides Activity types for various content areas. If you click on each of the active content links you will see that a variety of activitie types are identified as well as types of technology that could be used to facilitate that activity. I found it very interesting and would be helpful for tech coaches or teachers.

This is a good site, It would be very helpful for a person just getting started to look at their content area and see the types of activities listed (select the content area and then select the activity type link within the page). Each activity listed also has a list of technology that could be used to facilitate that activity.

Youth Voices is a meeting place where students share, distribue and discuss their digital work online.

If you are looking fora way to have your students interact with others, this might be helpful. It looks like you can have your own private group or you can select to allow others to join. I am thinking that you could connect with a class in another school in or out of state and you could set up a group for the two groups of studetns to interact. Maybe they could talk about a novel they are reading or about a current event.
