I am leaving Noble and Greenough School after 10 great years to pursue
educational technology consulting opportunities. I plan to remain active
on the ISED list, but my new email will be thomasdaccord@gmail.com.
My departure coincides with the publication of my second book, Best Ideas
for Teaching with Technology: A Practical Guide for Teachers, By Teachers.
Co-authored by Justin Reich, Best Ideas for Teaching with Technology: A
Practical Guide for Teachers, By Teachers introduces and explains -- in a
clear and accessible manner -- powerful educational tools and strategies
that teachers can apply immediately to their own teaching. In the book we
show teachers how to use technology to empower students to do creative and
meaningful work and develop essential skills. Alan November comments that
Best Ideas for Teaching with Technology: A Practical Guide for Teachers,
By Teachers "is an extremely valuable resource for teachers hoping to
realize the tremendous opportunities that technology offers for powerful
learning in the twenty-first century classroom."
Best Ideas for Teaching with Technology: A Practical Guide for Teachers,
By Teachers is available via Amazon:

EdTechTeacher.org is our new website and online companion to Best Ideas
for Teaching with Technology: A Practical Guide for Teachers, By Teachers.
The website (currently under construction) highlights ideas, tutorials,
lesson plans, reproducibles, and other resources to help educators
incorporate technology effectively into different aspects of teaching. It
also provides a listing of tools and services that teachers can use to
design lessons, activities and assessments for their classrooms.
In case you're wondering, I plan to continue to organize the annual
"Teaching with New & Emerging Technologies" conference in the spring and
collaborate with Dan Weir and all the wonderful people at Nobles.
Best wishes,
Tom
