Many students, myself included in my student days, feel much more comfortable reading and writing than responding in class. These internet tools seem to help open up that valuable outlet for communicating by making it as easy as one click, where it used to be so difficult. However, it seems that there should always be a balance and that the point should never stray to far from what is actually and practically useful simply in the name of innovation and technology.

Great resources and information. Parents are such an essential ingredient in student success what better way to get them on board than to offer them a 1st class ticket to education in the 21st century!

I was able to listen in and chat during one of your webcasts and was so impressed with it. I also watched one of Matt's webcasts and was blown away with how incredible his parent workshop on technoloy was! Parent-teacher collaboration is vital for producing a high-quality education for any child. Thanks so much for including my parent workshop wiki!
