This is the second photo I have posted of a church for sale, and the only one with the church in the photo. It seems so odd to have these for sale, I guess I never really noticed in the past, but there are three within 4 miles of here. This one is a block away.
Langwitches Blog » It’s Not About the Tools. It’s About the Skills
Here is a beautiful webquest which uses links to many Educational Technology leaders and also some fascinating videos.

ASH's 23 Things for Web 2.0: 3: How are others using blogs?
The 23 things is an incredible program that I talk about wherever I go. This "thing 3" which asks a person to explore blogs is a perfect example of why so many learn from this program -- it is self-directed, it requires a response also.
I love this quote that 'blogging begins with reading."

westwood - Spanish Voicethread Tour
Here is a lovely cross- curricular project that the spanish teacher and I did together. She came to me and said, "I want to use this but will you help me on the technology side, I don't have to understand the technology to use the technology." My answer is YES! We took 2 days, did it in class, and there is a rich project that also gives her a legacy to hand down to other classes and for others to use and share.
In this, students are taking tours of countries. They will play this and critique it in class using the teacher's hook up between her computer and large screen tv.
