Top 100 Education Blogs

Education blogs are becoming a means for educators, students, and
education administrators to interact more effectively than ever before.
Technorati currently tracks 63.1 million blogs. Over 5,000 of them are about education. It is likely that there are hundreds, if not thousands, more education-related blogs on the Web. (UPDATE: There are over 30,000 blogs hosted at edublogs.org alone. Thanks James Farmer!) Here is a list of our staff’s 100 favorites.

Please
note that this is by no means an exhaustive list of all of the great
education blogs out there. Chances are you may have favorites that are
not included here. Also note that this list is not ranked but rather is
ordered alphabetically within each topic.

PubMed Central Open Access List…

The following journals make all or most of their contents available as Open Access publications. An X in the Partial contents column means that the open access designation only applies to some of the journal’s content.

To learn more about open access to government related materials check this group out, The Alliance for Taxpayer Access
These are the group’s Statement of Principles:

1. American taxpayers are entitled to open access on the Internet to the peer-reviewed scientific articles on research funded by the U.S. Government.
2. Widespread access to the information contained in these articles is an essential, inseparable component of our nation’s investment in science.
3. This and other scientific information should be shared in cost-effective ways that take advantage of the Internet, stimulate further discovery and innovation, and advance the translation of this knowledge into public benefits.
4. Enhanced access to and expanded sharing of information will lead to usage by millions of scientists, professionals, and individuals, and will deliver an accelerated return on the taxpayers’ investment

What can I do with SketchUp?

You can use SketchUp to create 3D models of just about anything you can imagine. SketchUp is easy to learn and use, and is designed primarily for the conceptual phase of design.
