Last week, we featured three of our favorite EdTech blogs.

This week, check out three more blogs that make educational technology issues interesting and accessible:

The Tech Savvy Educator

Penned by elementary school teacher Ben Rimes, The Tech Savvy Educator is a thoughtful, wide-ranging ed-tech blog that focuses on issues large and small (posts range from videos about new ways to use a projector to in-depth discussions of the ways in which technology can reinforce poor learning.) Whether you’re looking for new ideas for the classroom or want to sink your teeth into a pedagogical discussion, the Tech Savvy Educator won’t disappoint.

From the Sides-lines

From the Sides-lines is a great blog written by Marti Sides, a Curriculum Technologist who (as the name suggests!) helps teachers incorporate technology into their curriculum.  On her blog, Marti discusses different ways to bring technology into the classroom, and offers insightful, sincere commentary on what it means to be a good teacher.

    Oooooo, anyone who hands out compliments to my blog by describing them as pedagogical discussions certainly earns brownie points in my book :) I’ve been dabbling as of late with more and more of the reflective posts about teaching and learning, and I’m glad that they’ve been interesting to a few people out there in the blogosphere.

    Cool stuff you’re doing here with Knewton, love the idea of an online adaptive learning platform. If you ever wanted to go non-profit, I’d certainly talk with Bruce Umpstead, the Tech Director for Michigan Department of Education. I’m sure he’d love talk with you guys.
