Dr. Alice Christie's, A professor at Arizona State University, website is a great resource for teacher who are trying to learn new ways of incorporating technology into their classrooms. The website includes workshop listings, educational technology links, her class information, and various other links about web design and photography. The link I liked most was the educational technology link. The Educational Technology link listed different categories such as pod casting, instant messaging, educational portfolios, multimedia, rubrics, and online researching resources. As a future teacher I find all of these links to be of importance in some way or another.
The two that I found most worth wild for teachers are pod casting and rubrics. Pod casting can help demonstrate activities that the students may be doing. This could be extremely helpful in that instead of explaining the rules and procedures a million times the students could perform the measures while they listen to the teacher. The second one was rubrics. Rubrics are used by teachers as a evaluation of how the students are doing on a assignment. This is beneficial in that the teacher does not have to worry about showing favoritism because the same standards are set for each student.
