In this episode we talk about a blogging project with 34 students and some of the issues we run into with using wireless Internet connections. We also talk about the National Book Festival that was completed last weekend in Washington, D.C. and we finish up with a couple of useful Technology Picks of the Week.
Take a look at the brand new site, Congress.gov http://beta.congress.gov/ for federal legislative information. This beta site is exciting for educators that teach social studies or current events and are familiar with THomas.gov.
