After going to the MassCUE conference, I came away with a bunch of things to think about relating to computers and education. Specifically there are lots of different ways for students to collaborate and lots of tools that can facilitate that process.
First go here: http://prezi.com/obqzirjhtf-q/ and play the presentation. It's very cool (skip past the video if you wish).
Second, some sites that looked interesting that people may want to check out are posted below:
http://www.gapminder.org/ - 4-Dimentional graphs (2-D graphs with the addition of color, and time)
http://prezi.com/ - non-linear online presentations, a very cool replacement for powerpoint, but it may cost.
http://www.edmodo.com/ - a sort of self-contained, password protected version of facebook for your classroom
http://www.polleverywhere.com/ - a cell phone replacement for the automatic class polling systems
http://www.wikispaces.com/ - your own classbased wiki
