Dear Debbie,
     I, also, look for differentiated instruction and MI.  I have many ELL students in my 6th grade classes, and it is quite a challenge to keep up with all the scaffolding.  A good site I found is Internet4classrooms.  It has 5 pages of links to differentiated education.

Hi Mariann,
My primary personal PD resource is reading the NIFL lists, but I also recently took an online course from Proliteracy World Education on Multiple Intelligences and Differentiated Instruction that was excellent. I recommend the Texas Adult Basic Education Teacher's Toolkit http://www-tcall.tamu.edu/toolkit/contents.html to my new ABE/ASE teachers. Honestly I use all kinds of technological PD resources all the time; these are the ones that first come to mind, and the NIFL lists are usually where I find out about them.

Hi all,
I'm doing some research and would like your input.
What technology resources (sites, tools, learning communities) do you use that supports you (or your program staff) in your own professional development as educators? What do you think is the value of these resources and how have they helped you? 

I know a number of the folks on this list attended or presented at conferences this season did you see any thing on this topic that you can share?

 
All the best,
Mariann
