Social networking group

I like the http://www.classroom20.com/photo, which is the most active cite that I have found. I can see lots of useful categories here. I think I will be able to get most all of the information that I will need for class. Most importantly, I think I can learn lots of new technology skill. Frankly, I am really poor at technology. I have tried to avoid using technology as much as possible in my previous classes. But I know that It is definitely true that with the assistance of technology, learners can have more diverse learning environment and feel more fun learning. This cite looks useful and good. But, I was, at the beginning, a bit overwhelmed by too many information that the cite provides. It will take long to get familiar with them. But, it deserves taking time and taking my energy.

And also, through communication with the user of this site, I can get a lot of updated information, current educational issues, or practical advices from real world experiences of the users.(most of them seem to work as teacher or used to work or to plan to be a teacher)

P.S. I was very sick yesterday. Sorry for the late post!

I really hope that you decide to keep working with technology in your classroom. I often find that new technology can be overwhelming, but given a couple hours and good cup of coffee, you can decipher and learn how to use anything on a computer.

Teaching our students to use technology is essential now. They need to be prepared for the world, which is our responsibility and technology is a big part of the world out there.

Stick with technology cause you can do it! Always remember that there are tutorials and help out there!

Shasha,
I hope that you find good information exchanges on this site.

BTW don't forget to get rid of the words Blog List that are repeated too many times in your blogroll. If you need help doing that, just let me know.
