"We first caught wind of Peter Pappas’s
blog, Copy / Paste,
when we
read his account of using Twitter to network at ASCD’s 2009 Annual
Conference. With an eye toward technology and the Internet, Pappas
brings together lessons and material from his recent presentations, along
with practical tips and tools for classroom teachers. As a longtime educator and consultant, his posts are imbued with authority and aim to inform and share. Recent topics include using Google’s LIFE photo archive as a teaching tool, the transition from text literacy to screen literacy, and the link between algebra and reading." Ben Licciardi is a reference librarian in ASCD's Information Resource Center. |
