Gooru

http://www.goorulearning.org/gooru/index.g#/home is a search engine for teachers. It quickly links you to all kinds of interactives, videos, etc. to use in your classroom. This is an easy way to get started integrating technology into your classroom. Go to the website and search "life cycle" for starters. Be sure to play with the interactives. Then search your content and see what you can find. Amazing resource.

Kathy Schrock is a teacher's best friend in this tech changing world!

I attended her session in California at ISTE, and I found it to be the one of the most useful. Her website is full of information to help teachers integrate technology into an already rich and skilled classroom. Start with Tech Tips for Teachers on the left, and have fun exploring. http://www.schrockguide.net/

WebQuests

If you are worried about HOW to integrate technology into your curriculum...the logistics of it...go here first. WebQuests.org is full of ideas and shared WebQuest lesson plans. The preparation is completed for you, and the students will take off with these inquiry based projects. This will help strengthen your comfort level with tech in the classroom. It shouldn't be separate or just for the teacher. The students should be utilizing it to LEARN!! Have fun exploring, and please post when you've tried something and share your experience. http://webquest.org/
