I love this article...

A Great Site for Teachers Who Want Tech Ideas

I already subscribed to "Tammy's Tech Tip of the Week", but was able to attend one of her sessions at the ICE Conference in St. Charles, IL last week. She has excellent ideas on how to incorporate technology into a classroom. I especially like that she incorporates higher order thinking skills into most of her ideas. I am going to be presenting some of her ideas at the April 1 Teacher's Institute.

Check out her website and at the very least sign up for her "Tech Tip of the Week".
