I have become much more aware of Rss newsfeeds now that I know what they are! I discovered that the California Learning Resource Network that I heard about at a recent tech meeting has rss feeds for some of their services. I signed up to receive web information links. I've already a viewed a few of the links and the reviews. This will definitely be a useful resource for finding effective websites to use in my lessons.
I tried using the different search vehicles. I found most of them a bit overwhelming, but was able to find a few tips and tricks. I like the way topix allows you to search by zipcode to find local news stories and then allows you to search by topic as well. I found the Google search the least overwhelming and user-friendly. I also searched in the award winning blogs and liked the Creating Lifelong Learners blog
because there was a list of categories to browse by grade level. This helped to filter the information I was viewing. I'll try to use rss feeds to help me find resources for my lesson planning in the future.
