We are quickly becoming part of the global learning movement. Technology provides virtually unlimited access to information, but keeping up with the latest educational trends and technologies can be daunting. My goal is to provide a forum for sharing and learning about web 2.0 technologies that are revolutionizing classroom instruction, and recommend some of the best, and usually free, digital tools that can inspire and support education.
