Challenge Yourself for the Next School Year!

For those of you just wanting to take the first step in technology integration, let me encourage you to start the school year with a personal challenge. Challenge yourself to find 2 technology resources. Give yourself permission to take the time to learn the resource and then use it with your students this school year. You will soon see how easy it is to infuse your current lessons with technology which will in turn allow you to reach your students on a whole new level. Please share your victories and pitfalls so that we can all learn from each other.
Here are some resources to get your started:
