Blogroll: Education & Tech
I thought I’d give some props to the feeds I read on a regular basis. I’ll be listing them by the way I’ve categorized them, including a link and short description of each site, along with a link to the feed for that site. Start clicking!
The following fall under the tags “education” and “tech”; they’re blogs concerned with the use of blogs, games, wikis, and other computer technologies in education. Recent developments, comments and analyses, pedagogical reflections.
