Free Technology For Teachers

The blog that I chose to follow is Free Technology for Teachers. The URL for this site is http://www.freetech4teachers.com/. I chose this blog because of the variety of information available. It doesn’t focus on a specific topic of technology, but information regarding many types is addressed.

Another reason I chose this blog was that it provides current technology resources. I am currently taking my last two classes in the TIE program and want to stay connected to the latest technology uses in the educational setting. I believe by following this and other blogs, I will be able to stay current and up-to-date with technology applications which will allow me to provide students the opportunity to integrate technology into the daily learning activities.

The topic that caught my eye from the beginning was the free ebook section that covered Google for Teachers and making videos. However, I was soon watching the seven videos that every teacher must see and the clip of “The Big Bang Theory” that helps support the use of Google Docs. Although I didn’t check out all of the information on this site, what I did see was informative and presented in such a manner that it was easy to follow. Not only will I be able to gather information from this blog, but some of the videos that were posted would be useful for professional development activities or classroom activities.
