Hi Chris, I'm not sure what grade level or curriculum you have to work with but teaching technology will not require a textbook, Hope your in a lab though! You will might need a projector,<br />
I have lots of resources relating to business but can be eaily adapted for other subject areas. <a href="http://smartbusinesseducation.wetpaint.com/">http://smartbusinesseducation.wetpaint.com/</a><br />
Using blogs and having students help to create your own class text book in a wiki might be helpful.<br />

You'll have to try things out yourself first, many schools are blocked by filtering to access video or some sites.<br />
nothing worse than having a great lesson planned at home and then can't do it in the classroom.<br />
Google docs is great- you can do a survey with google forms as student accessment for start of course and end of course.<br />
It's also advisible to check out the school or board policy on things like using students names, and photos on internet, a letter to parents may be wise. Talk to the other teachers in the school- take time for lunch- building a network online and face to face will make the journey more fun and productive. Steve. Thanks for the tip!

Hi Chris and welcome!<br />
<br />
You won't need a textbook. You'll be able to have your students sign up for a Google Account and subscribe to blogs and articles in their Google Reader, share documents and presentations, collect data through Google Spreadsheets. The possibilities are endless.<br />
<br />
I don't know where to tell you to start - other than what I wrote above- but you will need to make some very basic decisions. What skills would you like your students to have? Before you can select the tools,…

<br />
Once you have that down, take a look at any one of these wikis for web 2.0 tools as well as the bottom, right of this page to look at tools as well. Good luck!<br />
