Back to Resources for Educators

Jen's Library
For years I collected articles, conference notes, and workshop notes in folders in my filing cabinet, books on my shelves, and bookmarks on my computer.  These are the words, data, and ideas that have informed who I am as an educator over the last decade.  In my attempt to think through connections, make my own work transparent, and share with colleagues, this page is my new library, and I will constantly be adding material that speaks to my concerns and, I hope, yours.  Keep checking back and please contact me at j.morrison@artofeducating.com if you have written or discovered something about an interest we share.

Bookmarks and Links
Check out http://delicious.com/artofeducating for sites and information related to teaching, learning, leadership, data, assessment, and anything else that's caught my eye. 

Books
I wonder if physically printed books will ever go out of style?  Until they do, I'm keeping two lists: My Bibliography lists books that I have found useful to my work and Books to Buy lists books I'll probably spend some cash on at some point.
