Web Based Educational Resources

All I can say is, "WOW!" The amount of web based educational resources out there is phenomenal. There is absolutely NO reason why (except if there are no computers in class available) that teachers can not incorporate technology into EVERY lesson that they teach--the information is certainly available! I love Starfall.com for early learners and Unitedstreaming.com, Knowledge Box and PersuadeStar are interesting resources for children and would definitely hold the attention of older students. To really move forward, principals should hold teachers accountable for incorporating technology into at least 75% of their lesson plans, especially after learning how this generation of students learns differently than the rest of us do!
