So I found three blogs which I plan to follow.

Teachercast 

A very cool blog where teachers can help teachers.  It is a place where anyone can post an article.  Very rich in material.  Has lots of high tech info as well.

Educational Technology and Mobile Learning

Has lots of useful information for techie teachers and even for teachers like myself who are relatively and positively anceint when it comes to tech.  I am interested to learn to use items than can really be helpful.  Nice blog

Dangerously Irrelevant

Blog by Scott McLeod.  Very nicely designed and with lots of info.  Eye on the social implications of technology

Baruch hashem (!)   As soon as I finished posting my first post I felt better, the weight lifted.
Hoping and waiting for more good news, soon.
Incidentally, has anyone found or made a kosher movies list ?

I am very excited and very nervous about this course.  For some reason, at the moment, moving around the internet feels weighty and not weightless.  I think this can be a very  useful course for me.  Hoping to make the most of it !
