More than educational robotics
There's a lot of other learning technologies out there. Of course computers come to mind immediately. There's the tools for online learning, like Moodle. Interactive whiteboards (IWBs) are cropping up everywhere. It's hard to keep up. Below are some links to sites that help me stay abreast of new developments and innovative products.
Stephen Downes
Stephen is an interesting commentator. He is wonderfully upfront about his (small p) political views. He aggregates a lot of information and shares it on his web site. In addition, you can subscribe to this daily email, as I do.
Edsurge
Edsurge is another source of information on educational technology. It is provides info on new products, innovative use of products and feedback to developers from educators. I subscribe to their email.
DERN
The Digital Education Research Network is a source of news from the research field. It sends out occasional emails noting important research findings.
Edutopia
Edutopica is not technology focussed, which I like. It looks for and shares various tools in education that can improve learning. They include problem-based learning, school design and other factors, along with educational technology.
