I think the website Voki.com is a really cool site that allows the user to enable a speaking cartoon voice to represent their written words. This is also a great resource for students to find a connection that they can identify with more when learning material that is difficult for them.
The website sketch.odopod.com is an awesome resource for kids and students to access that will allow them to express their creativity and release some of their frustrations. This site is designed for users to create their own artistry and publish it on the web.
On the education website "Education world" there is a wonderful article titled "Are you a techno Constructivist" found on http://www.educationworld.com/a_tech/tech/tech005.shtml. This article is a great resource for any teacher who is looking for a way to get technology into their classroom. The article talks about how we as teachers need to be more inclusive with the use of technology in the classroom. The article gives 4 distinct and helpful steps for which teachers can use to make their classrooms more technologically savvy.
It is amazing that on the web there are so many different resources for students and teachers to use when creating projects or lesson plans. The websites that host free photos and free musis, sites such as, flicker.com, freetech4teachers.com, and projecthelp.wikipages.com, are all great resources for teachers to find free and usable data.
