The goals of Teachers' Choice are to identify exemplary web sites for student and teacher learning, to describe in what ways a particular site is valuable, to give educators a voice in determining quality, to allow educators to provide information about using Internet resources in the classroom, and to allow educators to find web resources that have been deemed valuable by their peers. You also consider the progress and importance of your work as you write about it. And best of all, having an audience for your words and ideas provides the sense of being valued for those very words and ideas. The education community is at a juncture that provides enormous opportunity to promote change. For teachers to embrace technology, for administrators to provide encouragement, and for communities to provide support, they need information and communication.
Sharing is an important step.
