As a teacher at a school that is currently fighting with the board to try and initiate a 1-to-1 initiative, I found it very applicable. I throughly agree with the statements made. As a teacher I need to have input of what we are allowed to use (website access) and all things curricular. I also need to be taught how into integrate the technology into my courses - not just how to use the technology. I am normally pretty quick to figure out new technology, but I struggle with how to use it effectively with my students. I hope that all administrators and those in charge of 1-to-1 programs access this information and use it! Thank you for sharing this!

I want to take a good look at the Library of Congress site. I much prefer authorStream because it preserves links. Here's a tip for you: authorStream is sponsoring a project called PowerPoint for Peace (http://www.ppt4peace.com/). The images must be original or non-copyrighted and there is only one slide allowed, but if the students are creative with their animations within the slide they can produce some amazing material.
