Teachers...

you may find it useful to access a discussion board for frequently asked questions-I will reply, if I know the answer! Other teachers may reply if they know the answer!
And, as always, more than one of us may need an answer to the same question! This way, we can share our knowledge and help each other!

Technology Education using Computers to promote Higher-order thinking skills in Students

This student website and other Google Tools are often blocked by the web filtering system in the district, so students must log on and access the resources and tools from home or the local library. Students must have a valid e-mail account to access these tools and groups, and they must remember their usernames and passwords, so I suggest writing this information down and keeping in a place that you may access easily when it is time to work on your projects.

Student Use of Open Source Resources

See the website below for a great set of learning tools for students that work on a variety of Operating Systems, including Windows 98! This OPEN SOURCE software enables students to work on projects at school and at home or the library, and encourages communication with each other in terms of evaluations, sharing information, or solving problems by working together! Check out the website at:

www.zoho.com

Students may access Zoho Writer to create their stories and Zoho Show to create a presentation of the story that includes pictures (photographs or images drawn in Microsoft Paint). All pictures may be uploaded in an online library in the Zoho program. If you have Windows XP or later, students may use the images and story idea to create a Digital Story in Microsoft Windows Movie Maker!
