Cropping and Resizing Graphics for the Web

This June-July in San Antonio, I'll be teaching a NECC workshop on Google Sketchup. I'm really looking forward to that. Each year, however, at our local VSTE (Virginia) state conference, I teach a popular workshop on Photoshop.

Surveys with Google and InspireData

Celestia

A lot of folks in our district like Google Earth, and now it's augmented with Google Sky. There's an older tool that I've shown to some teachers in the past that I also think is still worthwhile, called Celestia. It's a free download for Mac, Windows, and Linux users.

I've made an instructional video introducing the software; kind of a "try before you buy" experience to see if you want to invest the time. Celestia is an exc… Continue

I hope things improve with the economy in general and with schools budgets and staff development funds so that conferences become available to more of our colleagues as they were in the past. Thanks for staying on top of the technology world for Goochland teachers and therefore our students. Tom

I really liked your "Research for Middle School" video. This would be useful for my computer tech class!

She doesn't know how to do an attachment. I'm not expecting technology leadership. Welcome to CR2.0
