Gentle reader, this is my first post. Go easy on me. I hope to use this blog to share my thoughts and discoveries as I explore the uses of technology in education.
So, to start with I am going to share some of my favorite sites for the holidays. (OK. I know. What does this have to do with education and technology? I may have trouble encouraging a teacher to use a site that would enhance his/her curriculum, but honestly who does not want to elf themselves.)
Here are some of my favorites:
