Educational Technology

I found the most wonderful blog today, via Twitter!

Welcome to NCS-Tech!

There was so much good stuff on there that I felt like a kid in a candy store! There was a very helpful post about how educators can get Google Earth PRO for FREE – and I’ve already emailed that post to our technology guy in our school district.

I’ll come make this post prettier and the like – I just didn’t want to lose track of this awesome blog!

MobileTalk by Packet8 – Connect with the world!

International calling can sure get expensive and it can also be complicated – having to remember long access numbers or PIN codes. Well, now you can get Mobile Talk from Packet8 and save up to 90% on the cost of international calls. All you have to do is sign up for an account and download the MobileTalk application to your phone, and then all of your international calls will be routed through the Packet8 Network and it’s that easy!

Learning about other countries and connecting with people in other countries is a wonderful and important thing. We really are living in a global world, and anything that can help facilitate that is a good thing! It’s so important for kids to see, though, that the world is really more than just your backyard, or even your town! It’s important for all of us, really! I know that I can often get into that mindset – only seeing what I see in front of me. When I branch out and force myself to see more is when I get a much clearer view of life. And if I can connect with that larger view of life for a low monthly fee – that just rocks!
