"Hey Teryn,
Technology hinders student learning mostly when it is used inappropriately. For instance, if students are typing an essay in Microsoft Word, they should be encouraged to review their work after they complete the…"

Joe Pascarelli posted a discussionEducation Technology Specialist CST
I am going to take the Education Technology Specialist Content Specialty Test. Does anyone know of a good book or resource to use to study for this exam? I used the study guide from the NYS test site, but found it to be a limited resource. Any text/resources recommendations would be appreciated. See More
Joe Pascarelli replied to Alan Degener's discussion New Math Resource - ShowTheMath.org"Hello Alan,
I just tried out your site. It seems like a great concept, however it is a bit confusing to use. I wonder if perhaps somewhere you can incorporate instructions or a demo on the front page of the site. The instructions…"
Joe Pascarelli replied to Jon Bischke's discussion What one thing will most revolutionize education?"I think we need to look at what will revolutionize education in a positive way. Often, technology is used in a way that does not enhance learning, but merely takes the place of an older method. For instance, too often we see people misusing laptop…"

With can send power points using Web tools; I recommend you take a look at Wiziq's virtual classroom and authorstream's power point presentation platform. Both are web based platforms, have a bunch of features and free basic service.
Here’s a Public Class on Technology Integration you might be interested in given by Nellie Deutsch.

Hope you're enjoying the winter break. I was wondering if you, your educator contacts or students would be interested in participating in a nationwide Vocab Video Contest @ MIT university. We'd really like to get more students involved from NYC
You can view contest details at BrainyFlix.com Please let me know. Thanks!

I'm sending out messages to everyone I know right now, and this classroom20 network is no exception. (I've also sent this out on other Ning networks you may be a part of.) My name is Marco Morales; I am a 20 year old college student from Olin College of Engineering. I am a part of a group of 6 Olin College students (we're in Needham,MA, and engineering students) who has taken a year off to work on an education related project. I found you when I searched for middle schools on classroom20, and since our project is specific to middle schools, I thought you might be interested! Our project is called AlightLearning, and this is our "short" project description:
Under the assumption that within ten years, the landscape of modern education will have fully integrated what we now define as new classroom media: video, online collaboration, open source curriculum and other web tools, we hope to pioneer a web software tool that acts as a platform for this new media, bringing the power of the web and its tools to students, teachers and parents in a secure, comfortable and innovative environment. Our goal is to have our free software at a pilot middle school by April 15th, 2008, continuing to develop and coordinate with our users to create a product that other schools want to pilot and use at their schools, while allowing individual teachers to implement this tool in their own classroom.
Our project, titled Alight Learning, is currently trying to win an idea competition on Ideablob.com You can find us at http://ideablob.com/3975. We would love your support in the form of a vote within the next couple days, but more importantly we'd love your feedback and comments. Our description on Ideablob is short, and even the one above hardly gets many of the issues we would like to take a stab at solving, but at least it's a start.
Feel free to email me back, check out alightlearning.com, anything you like!
Thanks,
Marco Morales
