This link has ideas on how teachers can integrate technology into their classrooms. It has descriptions of various web tools like blogs, google docs, etc. The site is designed by Project Looksharp which is part of Ithaca University. It's primary goal is to to work with teachers to create new or revised teaching materials and pedagogical strategies that incorporate media literacy and enhance classroom practice. Very helpful site full of resources.
