Considerations for curricular and web-based projects c

This book provides an important perspective for educators implementing technology into their curriculum. The "Big Twelve" categories provide a rich context to connect subject content & skills to developmentally appropriate learning (Chapter 2). The categories also limit the infinite ways to think about connecting web and classroom and this is critical when Technology is used as a teaching tool. The content examples are extensive and span science, social studies, art, music, language arts, and mathematics.A must read when thinking about Standards and the Technology.

Step by Step Help for Internet Using Teachers

The first three or so chapters of this book contain great step by step information on all of the basics that a teacher needs to use the Internet for Project Based Learning. The following chapters are a collection of 100 or more tried and true online projects. Some of them are ongoing and can be joined, but most of them serve as an example for someone wanting to integrated this kind of instruction. I haven't seen a more helpful book.

Extremely useful on-ramp to the Information Superhighway

In my work, I try to help teachers imagine how they might use the Internet in their classes. This is the first resource that I believe will make that possible. It is inviting and easy to use. I'm buying copies for my favorite clients.
