Improving technology in your school
The Center for Implementing Technology in Education (CITEd) recently unveiled a new web site for delivering technical assistance to educators, technology coordinators, and parents. Here, one can access a comprehensive array of free online tools. The site is organized into three core focus areas:
The Learn Center helps users select resources and tools for implementing technology to support the needs of students;
the Action Center provides tools to plan ed-tech initiatives in the classroom and professional development models;
the Research Center offers CITEd's articles on educational practices grounded on the latest research.

Tu BiShvat resource
While driving my kids to school this morning, local newsradio here in Israel reported on the many "Tu BiShvat Seders" that will be taking place in community centers around Israel over the weekend.
For "do it yourselfers" they recomended going to the matnasim website and downloading their Tu BiShvat packet. It looks interesting (even though the introductory letters are signed by Limor Livnat and Natan Sharansky, neither of whom is a govenment minister today, which indicates
that the program is not brand new), and can be accessed in .pdf format .
Eat bokser!
