RESOURCES

This page is for educators and students who want to explore a bit deeper or look a bit further into learning enhanced by technology. It is by no means an exhaustive list; in fact, great lists of tools and teaching ideas exist elsewhere. However, the resources listed below should provide plenty of foundation to get started! Remember that it's not the number of technologies used, but how well they are used. Send a message through the site's "Contact" page to have your fabulous resource added here.
