Get me off Excursion Island!!! Lots of information on this adventure.

The Horizon report makes many good points about the future of technology and the learner.
Its alot to absorb.

There are many neat websites listed that offer various activities. I think my two favorites are http://www.tagxedo.com/ and http://sendables.jibjab.com/.

At tagxedo, I like how the students could use their original wordels from last summer, but now add a twist to their work. I think it is may be time consuming to teach the students how to use the site, but after the inital directions, they would love the creativity it allows. This may spark the interest of some bored students.

At jibjab, how doesn't love recieving something cute and funny in their in-boxes. Everyone loves a pat on the back and what an easy way to send one. The only problem I see is that some students may not have internet access at home, so these messages would have to be sent to a school account.
