I really enjoyed this website. I found a lot of good resources. In my classroom, I would use the Digital School Collection teacher resources. I found several lesson plans under the Visual and performing arts section. One that I liked was Digital Dali: Surrealism in art today, In this lesson, "students turn everyday digital photographs into surrealist-style artwork using Photoshop Elements. This activity helps students enhance their creativity and better understand surrealistic techniques by working with lighting, color, and movement to transform their pictures". I would use these lessons in my classroom.

I think this website would be useful for finding out how to do new stuff. This resource will help to "learn, teach, and create". I have never used a mac before this class so the videos such as Mac OS X Leopard Basics is helpful to "explore the many ways Mac OS X can make your teaching and your life easier". I would recommend these videos to other teachers. I would use this website to teach students and have them watch the relevant videos.

I found the teacher development resource useful. I think that this is a great way to learn about teacher preparation, parent involvement, classroom management and many more ideas that need to be known. I would recommend this site to teachers that want to better themselves in the classroom. I would use this resource to learn how to improve my teaching skills.
