One Last Thing...

I really enjoyed working and playing my way through the 23Things.  It is a great way to see what's out there.  I NEVER would have happened onto even a tiny fraction of the great tools and resources were it not for this activity.  I can't really say what my favorite discoveries are at this point--because there were so many!  I found so many things that I'll be using in the future, and, more importantly, I realize how important it is for me to teach my students how to use these tools and resources.  I really feel that many of my standards can be taught in an improved way by incorporating what I have learned.  The only suggestion I would make is to give students more time to complete the 23 Things.  To complete all 23+ in a meaningful way is a daunting task for students who are working/teaching, taking other classes, and taking care of family.  I look forward to sharing with my colleagues. I also know that I need and want to take a technology class more often than every 8 years or so!!!
