Utilizing What I Found On Twitter Today

This is a great site for introducing teachers and students to Google Docs. I need to utilize this for PD and for group assignments for Phil and Art History. I need to make these available for students on my wiki for each class.

This is a great article that I need to utilize in PD. I need to discuss the most important Ed tech and get teachers involved with it. This needs to be one of my initial PDs of the year.

This is a great article about the real world impact of overusing PPT. I thought it was both funny and sad. If PPT makes the military more stupid, what is it doing to our students? I need to use the article as a springboard into discussions about other presentation tools.

This is an amazing set of resources for PDs about Twitter. I will also use it when I introduce Twitter in my Art History class.
