If that title caught your attention, consider registering for the FREE webinar sponsored by NCTE and ISTE. Yes, it's called "Dancing the Technology Tango: English Teachers, Tech Coordinators and Students Learning Together". TIME: Wed. Sept. 22 at 5:00pm CDT.
National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE) website offers this description: "Join the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) and NCTE on Wednesday, September 22, 2010, for a free Web Seminar designed for instructional leaders, technology coordinators, staff developers, curriculum coordinators, literacy coaches, English teachers, and others who are working to develop rich and authentic 21st century learning experiences and curricula.
[It continues] During this webinar, we will explore models, resources, and tools for collaborative instructional planning between those who know the curriculum and those who understand the unique capacities of digital technologies. To that end, we will tour the US Department of Education’s School 2.0 etoolkit website with over 700 free resources to help educators with technology integration in the classroom. ... Our goal will be to anchor the discussion in real examples of collaboration that have fostered authentic and rich English language arts pedagogies with digital media."
Presenters are Sara Kajder, NCTE member and author, and Chris O’Neal, ISTE faculty. Their bios appear on the NCTE website -- the webinar is free, but registration -- via that site -- is required.
Let's continue a discussion of powerful web tools that may change the way we teach and learn.

Just a very quick post to share this resource:
"7 places & ways to find copyright-friendly images". It's posted by Richard Byrne, at Free Technology for Teachers. Both Judy Gressel and I have blogged about his work in the past -- it's a great source of information.
In fact, he offers several free ebooks, such as How to do 11 Techy Things in the New School Year (58 pages on using tools such as blogs, wikis and Google docs). There's also a wiki on his site with resources for subjects such as foreign language, math, and science.
And as the new school year begins, look at "Organizational tools for students"; we should perhaps add some of these to any future review of tools like Evernote.
