It has been super busy and crazy here in Southeast, TEXAS. Can I blame it on the unpredictable weather we have been having? I am finally able to shout out about my awesome attendance at 
TCEA in Austin, Texas six days ago. It was, as always, great to be around TECHie & NERDy friends around the country to learn and collaborate. In fact, one can learn so much that your head feels like it will explode! I have come across sites where attendees have accumulated their learnings and resources. I wanted you to have the links all in one place and check out some of my favorite ones. Of course, you can always refer back to the hashtags, #tcea15#tcea2015#learnanywhere on Twitter to find more. The handouts that TCEA provides  is another place to find resources. I also found that Miquel Guhlin shared his own resources through Postach.io in combination with Evernote.  He graciously provides a how-to explaining the tracking of Twitter with Evernote and Postach.io. Ok, enough rambling, here is my takeaways for you:

1.      Lesson Planet - stated that they were a combination of Simple K12, Atomic Learning, and Lynda.com   
I have 4 sheets to share with you with the information. Jake Moore:

888-217-7166  He said he would be willing to set up a webinar anytime to share the product with you, teachers, admin, etc. 
 
2.      AWE: Advanced Workstation Education: whitepaper available on data from 2013-14 in a Georgia Elementary school where average improvement was 55% in literacy scores across 4 Kindergarten classrooms! STAR assessment results (Works on Dell Venue tablets) Recommends only 2 per classroom or 8 in a lab setting in a rotation with Student Learning centers.
