Lannon serves as the technology guru from Texas' Educational Service Center for Region 13. In that capacity he often posts and shares about issues and resources for K-12 teachers, including news, updates and instruction for the Texas Education Agency's (TEA) Project Share.
Today he touched on the same topic I have been reading about, the Khan Academy, whose resources Lannon considers "increasingly awesome."Today's focus is on the Academy's "SmartHistory," which Lannon describes as an "engaging ... multimedia alternative to Art History textbooks."
I'm hearing more about the Khan Academy (and in particular, digital textbooks via iPads) than I can find time to share with the folks at my district.
Wow. Maybe if there is smoke, ....
My high school art teacher is thrilled to have received info about this resource.
