REVIEW: Novice or veteran teachers looking for ways to use technology effectively in the classroom will find lots of resources here. These exhibits were created by National Board Certified teachers on a variety of subject areas and for a variety grade levels. The videos are excellent examples of best practices for teaching with technology. It's the next best thing to visiting the teacher's classroom -- and there are student and parent testimonials as well! There are currently fourteen exhibits available. Each exhibit includes an introduction, lesson plan, video clips, student work samples, assessment tools, resources, research, and teacher reflection as well as correlations to National Board Standards, ISTE's NETS (National Educational Technology Standards), and state and content area standards. This is one you will want to bookmark for future visits.
