There are a large number of great resources on the net-fortunately more than enough to hover over the "crap" that often floods the internet. http://www.proedinc.com/ is an excellent example of a great educational resource. I came across this website while searching for journal articles for my thesis class. It is an international, online publishing company where professionals in the field can write for the various journals published by the website. Aside from the journals, http://www.proedinc.com/ publishes standardized tests and markets resources for special educators.
I'm a poor college student, so I'm not able to purchase the great tools from PRO-ED Inc. However, if I ever decide to become a special educator or school administrator, I wouldn't think twice about ordering tools through this company. Definitely poke around the site and see all that they have to offer.
Another gem is brought to us by the Discovery Channel's website. http://school.discoveryeducation.com/lessonplans/
I'm very picky about the various lesson plan sites on the web. I know as a first year teacher especially, I'll need some help with lesson planning in a pinch. This site offers a number of lesson plans covering english, history, and scientific studies-and more! The plans are in depth, super interesting, and fun.
Tonight's homework: search the web. How much treasure can you dig up?
