Wow! This website is filled with so many things to do. I spent a half hour looking and didn't even touch the surface of all that is offered. I will definitely continue to explore this site. I like the fact that there is no preparation time needed as well. This allows the students more time on task. The educational games and lessons are fun and engaging. Having technology lessons that range from 15-30 minutes long allows any teacher to fit theses activities into a single period. Students can work individually on different activities while in the computer lab. This is advantageous to all. Thank you, Catarina and Dr. Luongo, for bringing this website to light.
