I found a couple great new resoures this week. Alexa.com provides data on web sites. The user types in the site to be reviewed and alexa.com provides information such as who typically visits the site and the countries where the searched site has been accessed. Alexa also provides information on what other sites link to the searched site. The author of the searched site is provided as well as contact information.
I also found Kathy Schrock's Guide for Educators on the Discovery Channel website. All I can say is 'Paydirt!' As someone who has been out of the classroom for a while, this resource is going to be very valuable to me. Kathy offers great resources on all contect areas. In order to do my site evaluation assignment, I went to Kathy's Guide to find my sites to review.
With all the great resources on the web, I'm relieved to know that I won't have to spend a fortune at the teacher supply store.

Hi Jenny,
Pay Dirt is certainly an apt description of Kathy Schock's site. What a gold mine of ideas and resources. I have no idea how one person can be as active and productive as she is. I've wondered whether she has a couple of clones of herself!
