Alabama Learning Exchange (ALEX)
 The ALEX is a great website for teachers and especially students that are working on becoming a teacher. This is a very well organized and informational site. I believe ALEX will be a great tool for my teaching. I will use it as a resource for my classroom.

Alabama Connecting Lassroom Educators and Students Statewide (ACCESS)
 The ACCESS is a website for students who are interested in taking course not offered to them. This website allows students to pull study materials to prepare them for the graduation exam and other important exams. This would have been beneficial to my education if I knew about this in high school. Iam pretty sure not many high school students know about what is offered to them through this website. This is a great tool for the State of Alabama to have.

Blog Post #11

I would use all of Ms. Cassidy's ideas for using technology in the classroom. Ms. Cassidy had alot of good ideas for using technology in the classroom. It allows students to motivate each other and want to learn more. The students was proud and felt really configent in their work. Blogs allows people to leave comments for the students which can also motivate them to do better. The web pages is also a useful tool in the classroom. If a student is sick and miss an assignment, the web page allows them to check what they miss.Ms. Cassidy is doing such a wonderful job with her students. I wish her and her students the best of luck and hope they continue to learn more about technology.
