Thing #8

I like RSS feeds and newsreaders because it sends updates quickly and easily. It eliminates going to many web sites to get information. The Google Reader is set up so that it is easy to skim for information and articles that are interesting.

I am subscribing to eschool news which sends updates on education around the world. With our crisis funding in Texas, I think it is good to be informed as well as how other schools are being funded.

I received a grant for alternative energy resources, specifically wind power. My objective is to raise student awareness of our energy crisis, and the feeds will give more background knowledge to share with the students.
