Bob Bowman's GUIDE TO FREE
EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY

http://www.user.shentel.net/rbowman/

The mission of this site is simple: To put free technological tools and free global resources directly in the hands of those who need them. We cannot have the highest expectations for our students and yet minimize their access to the requisite tools to build upon that potential. Online access can accelerate and selectively enhance the learning process.

The members of the entire education community - and all life-long learners (K-12, special ed, ESL, homeschooled, gifted and talented, and college students as well as teachers, parents, and support personnel) are those to be served by this mission.

The methodology of this site is to provide pre-screened, time-saving links to downloadable free educational software, tutorials, and other free resources by using the latest technology to transfer those items from archives throughout the world directly to the user's computer.

A brief sampling of free educational resources include:

Internet browsers to view/download global files

Editors to write home pages & online resumes

Source code to help write own software programs

Graphics to use in class presentations/reports Powerful spreadsheet and database programs

Science/Foreign Language & academic links

Sound/music clips for multimedia projectsHomework helper guides

Enhancing Learning & Teaching with Technology

http://www.jtap.ac.uk/

The JISC Technology Applications Programme (JTAP) is a highly focused programme aimed at assisting the HE community to get the best from its investment in IT.

To achieve this it reports on best practice in the community, both within UK HE and on experiences beyond. This enables the community to learn from each other and avoid unnecessary duplication of effort in introducing, developing and exploiting systems.

Secondly, JTAP funds projects which demonstrate the application of technology. This may be the application of novel technologies or applying existing techniques in new ways or in new areas. In this way we have been assisting UK HE to be in the vanguard of IT application so as to help maintain UK HE's worldwide competitive edge.

Thirdly, JTAP has funded four clearing houses to actively inform the community in distinct areas:

The use of IT to support staff and students with disabilities; and how by considering the needs of disabled users products and services are made more accessible for all users.

The new IMS standard on educational software; this will ensure interoperability between educational objects at all levels and so assist in the exploitation of educational material developed, and by being involved in its development we can ensure that it meets the needs of UK HE.

The use of smartcards in HE.

Videoconferencing

JTAP has identified a number of critical areas where it has been concentrating its effort. These include:

IT to support the management of HEIs

Security

Student Portable Computers (SPCs)

Computer supported educational environments

IT to support staff and students with disabilities

HPC and Cluster Computing

Milken Exchange

http://www.milkenexchange.org/

One of the biggest Internet resources for New Technologies in education. Provides information service and support at every level of education.

The Milken Exchange was formed in 1997 as part of the Milken Family Foundation's commitment to promoting responsible uses of education technology in schools. The Exchange is made up of a small staff with several ongoing initiatives aimed at helping states develop and implement educationally sound technology programs. This does not mean we want every child connected to a computer or that we count the number of hours each student spends on the Internet. Our goals are to enhance learning, and to bring resources that would not be possible without computers and other technology equipment. If more children can expand their horizons, accelerate their acquisition of information, and use computers as tools in working collaboratively with their peers, we feel we are doing our job. Many school districts have the best intentions for their technology, but struggle to afford access, teacher training, or interesting and effective lesson plans. The goal of the Milken Exchange is to help schools reach their own goals while continually assessing the impact of the technology upon their most important product, the students.

This information may be: school district technology plans available for downloading via a computer network; technology planning aids (checklists, brochures, sample planning forms, PR announcement forms); and/or electronic monographs on timely, selected topics. Main goals of the NCTP are to: 1) collect; 2) disseminate; and 3) help.

Collection occurs as school districts and other agencies around the world end their plans to NCTP to be added to the growing repository. Dissemination is accomplished by the NCTP's making many plans available lectronically for downloading via the Internet, a worldwide computer etwork. Help is offered in the forms of consultancy, conducting workshops, and the distribution of printed matter (brochures, pamphlets, etc.) that deal with particular aspects of technology planning. NCTP materials represent the school/education arena mostly; however, we serve many more types of organizations. Examples are: business/industry; military; government; and public service.

National Co-ordination Team (NCT) Website

http://www.ncteam.ac.uk/index.html

The NCT Information Service exists to provide higher education with easy access to information and copies of the materials and resources produced by FDTL and TLTP projects. Orders for projects' materials can be placed with the Information Service. In some cases, copies of the materials are held centrally and in others the order will be passed through to the project for processing and distributing.

The NCT works on behalf of the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) and the Department for Higher and Further Education, Training and Employment (DHFETE) to manage and co-ordinate two initiatives focused on encouraging innovation and new developments within learning and teaching.

NetLearn: Resources for Learning the Internet

http://www.rgu.ac.uk/~sim/
research/netlearn/callist.htm

NetLearn is a directory of resources for learning and teaching Internet skills, including resources for WWW, email and other formats. Links with descriptive and evaluative annotations are provided, covering: learning, teaching, navigating and providing information on the Internet; learning HTML; demographics; special needs and foreign language resources.

The list is classified as far as possible by medium and type, and by sections. Ordering by subject is not really appropriate, since the subjects are all essentially "Internet learning". While they might be divided into such areas as "navigation", "searching", "historical", "technical", "HTML" or "service provision" this is difficult due to the fact that many - or most - guides cover some or all of these aspects. Where there is confusion of objectives, resources have been included in both sections.

Index

1. Learning Resources:Main directory of resources for learning Internet skills. Divided into 4 sections:

Web based: WWW materials for learning the Internet: tutorials, documents and HTML materials

Email: resources available via email for learning about the Internet.

Downloadable: non-HTML/non-email programmes, Powerpoint slideshows etc., which can be downloaded and studied offline.

Non-computer basedmaterials, which you can find out about or order via the Internet.

2. Teaching Resources:Materials with a particular relevance to those who want either to teach the Internet to others, or use it for teaching their subject. Links are, of course, not exclusive to educators - some may be equally useful for self-teaching.

3. Special Resources: This is a section for resources of specialist interest:

Other languages:a range of resources for learning about the Internet in languages other than English. Includes links to different language browsers.

Visually impaired:resources for visually impaired users. Includes links to software.

Demographic & current awareness: resources for Internet statistics and services for keeping informed about Internet development.

4. Other Directories of Resources: Other lists and directories of Internet training materials, similar to this one.
