Dr. Helen Barrett's Electronic Portfolios
A great resource for electronic portfolio templates, etc. Dr. Helen Barrett's Electronic Portfolios
Site also contains a link to Cambridge's Deep Learning presentation that sounds really good.
She made several presentation at the TLMI conference at Otterbein college this week. Terrific conference, as always!!
One presentation was talking a good bit about what I like to call "the dark side of portfolios." Discusses the pressures on portfolios for student learning as well as portfolios for demonstration of mastery of concepts. Assessment for learning vs. assessment of learning. Story of learning, not a checklist of skills learned.

The Educator's Reference Desk: Resource Guide
The Educator's Reference Desk: Resource Guides This site is the same as the old ERIC site housed at Syracuse. Quite helpful in finding lesson plans and compiliations of research on selected educational topics. Not quite as useful if you're looking at technology, although many lesson plans do incorporate technology.

A crisis for Web preservation
Maybe I'm just a tad skeptical about the government (especially this one), but it seems a bit sinister that this information is self-vaporizing so quickly. It reminds me way too much of 1984 and Minitrue. I'd wonder what kinds of examples we could find of what's getting lost. I remember Dr. Maughan in graduate school saying "Information wants to be free." The problem is that too often free implies valueless.A crisis for Web preservation
