Learning and Leading

May 2nd, 2009 · No Comments

This week I noticed a copy of Learning & Leading with Technology  lying in very plain sight in another teacher’s mailbox in the teacher’s lounge.  This magazine caught my attention for a couple of reasons:

  1. I’m nosey (…but not to the point that I would snoop!  Seriously!  It really was in plain sight!).
  2. I am very interested in learning the latest of the latest in technology…not that I will use it all!  Just do not want to have the deer-in-the-headlights look when my students mention tech tools/jargon of which I have never heard!
  3. Did I mention I like to learn?

Later that day, I Googled the title, and I just have to share what I discovered!  Every educator interested in technology should check out this magazine/site!  Published by the International Sociey for Technology in Education, this magazine is published eight times a year, costs $7.75 per issue, and includes very interesting articles, articles that can be accessed for free!

Please check this out…what do you think?  Do you agree with me?  If you do, then please share this…best kept secrets should not be allowed in the land of education!

Now if summer would just hurry and get here so that I can spend time reading some past issues!
