Happy New Year Bloggers!!!

What a year!! With the arrival of a new baby to the family everything changed and obviously for good!!

Next year will be full of new projects and I already have a new position at school.
I will be an oline tutor for students and teachers willing to incorporate new technologies into thier curriculum.
I am thrilled and excited about it!!!

Let´s finish this year by understanding the difference between a Blog and Wikis. The explanation is clear and simple.

I also found this site very interesting if you are willing to Evaluate Web pages.

Next year Technology4teachers courses will be available. Take a look at our logo!! Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.us

Good Sites

Browsing through the Net I found interesting websites I want to share with you.

This Encyclopedia of Educational Technology is super!!

In this Free online paper graphic you can create your own graphs for educational purposes.

Sometimes I ask myself why I haven´t found this sooner. Google for educators. It´s easy and simple to use.

Check them out!!!!

Updating

So many things happened since I last wrote something in my blog. I finished my
Iearn course. What´t Iearn?

" Started in 1988, iEARN is the world's largest non-profit global network that enables teachers and young people to use the Internet and other new technologies to collaborate on projects that both enhance learning and make a difference in the world."

The Spanish version is called Telar. My group was great and my instructor constantly helped us. For sure I will incorporate Learning Circles next year in my classes.

I´ve created a Yahoo 360 for my daughters. I have to thank Mary Hills from Learning with computers because she gave me this idea and it´s really great. I also found that Yahoo 360 is a powerful tool and very easy to use. You just need time to sit and follow instructions on how to use it!!

I´m working hard because there will be a big surprise soon about a new project I´m creating with a cyber friend.

Ok let´s share cool technology tools. As a new bookmarker I found Magnolia to be quite good. Personally the best one is Blinklist and I also use Delicious.

There is and excellent site I want to share with you all. It´s Teachers teaching teachers and I found many good articles about Blogging.

So let´s continue Blogging but more professionally.
