I really like the RSS feeds:
- Free Technology for Teachers- the first word says it all, "F" is for furlough days that took away the extra money I could have used to purchase technology, it also stand for the fact that my mother did not raise a "fool". The subscription gives really good feedback on software, videos for how to use technology and even posts ads of where teachers can receive an education in technology...wonder who's name was listed a million times??? Does the following picture look familiar?
- Inside Higher Ed- I really feel like someday I might like to teach online courses at the collegiate level and this feed appears to have extremely well written articles that deal with issues professors, deans, etc. seem to posses. It also gives really great information on jobs and the way education is shifting in higher education.
- Theatre Mania- a great tool for production inspiration, it lists hundreds of plays being produced, written, and information on castings and what not I am a new theatre teacher and love seeing what others have preformed and how or if they pushed the envelope so I can tak it further.
- NPR Topics: Education- this feed gives a more broad look at education and on a global level. Everything from cheaper tuition for in state vs. out of state tuition, to issues with Isreal and issues with global competition.
- U.S. Department of Education-the latest info has been about Obama honoring the math and science teachers. I must admit, I'm a little upset about that seeing I'm also kind of partial to reading and writing.
I really do hope to find more feeds to collect info to build my foundational content, and I'm sure I'll be able to find ways to use this in my classroom.
