New technology is coming at us at such a high rate. It is so overwhelming even to a techie like me...well, elementary techie like me. This can be a good thing though. There's so many resources at the touch of our keyboard to help in our job as well as to educate us.
This last week, our instructor introduced us to http://www.go2web20.net/ where you can search for Web 2.0 tools. I searched under "education technology" but found nothing. Then I searched "technology coordinator" and, again, found nothing. Trial and error. Techies are patient. I then stopped to take a look at our instructor's instructions and chose to look for "e-learning". Bam! Lots of results.
Right away, I found a website titled "Game Classroom" at http://www.gameclassroom.com. Now this is a website that I would recommend to my teachers to use on their Smartboards with their students. I wouldn't recommend it for the students to use alone because it's ad intensive but for fun learning games, it looks to be valuable information.
Another search on "websites" gave a plethora of website building websites (say that three times really fast!) and led me to some possibly helpful sites. I'm in the process of building websites for my schools and the easier, the better! One that caught my eye was Web.com at http://www.webs.com/. I'll have to try it out later to see how easy it would be to use for our school websites.
Check out http://www.go2web20.net/ for yourself and see what you can learn today!
