"One of the reasons why I did not dwell a lot on the topic of RSS feeds on " 23 Excellent Tools for Teacher's Professional Development " is because I was planning a separate post for it alone. So what the heck is RSS feed all about and what importance does it have for me as a teacher ?" Via John Evans Delete the scoop?

If you need to review and compare alternative web conferencing and online collaboration tools you should give a look to Online Meeting Tools Review, a web service providing basic information for 35 different tools. I have already recommended this service in May 2012, but the service has been significantly improved and updated. With the Basic Comparison Tool you can review up to four different conferencing services side-by-side for no additional fee: https://webconferencing-test.com/en/compare-tools-basic With the Pro version of the same Comparison Tool you can get up to 12 different tools compared into a report that is sent straight to your email without any cost. The only requirement is that you accept the option of being later contacted by one of the companies you have requested to be compared. Free to use. Testing methodology: https://webconferencing-test.com/en/how-we-test Try it out now: https://webconferencing-test.com/en/online-meeting-home

Cyber attacks on computers that run the nation’s energy grid, nuclear reactors and water-treatment plants are increasing with potentially lethal effects, the Department of Homeland Security’s top investigator said.
Successful infiltrations of computer networks have the potential to create large-scale power outages or cause “physical damage, loss of life and other cascading effects that could disrupt services,” Charles Edwards, the agency’s acting inspector general, said in prepared testimony for a congressional hearing today.

"We all know that education budgets are getting cut more and more, and that meaningful professional development opportunities have unfortunately become a bit of an oxymoron in education. Not only can being a "connected educator" help change that, but it can also provide you with ongoing inspiration and support. I'd even go as far to argue that being connected will be the most impactful thing you can do in your career.
So with all of that said, I'd like to provide you with these ten tips on how you can get connected -- starting tomorrow." Via John Evans, John Purificati, Paul
