Welcome to the Favorite Links and Resources section of my portfolio.
 

Technology is becoming increasingly important and widely used in today's society, so it is not surprising that it is becoming increasingly important to educate our students on proper usage and understanding of various technologies. To effectively teach our students how to use technology, there is no need to "reinvent the wheel." This section includes helpful teacher resources and professional resources that help to utilize technologies in educational ways. These websites help to expand teacher knowledge about using and understanding technology. In addition, teachers may use these websites to adapt their academic content into useful tools and games for students.
 

Please take some time to browse through the available links and resources.
