Here are some interesting sites that I’ve found this week, thanks to my PLN. As a teacher, I feel we have to keep up to date concerning research in our field and current issues in the education system. I hope some of these inspire you, inform you, and even have you asking questions. Thank you for coming by and visiting!Flat World Knowledge – resource for free college textbooks

Model UN is the best activity I run in my classroom. Each summer term our Year 10 (9th Grade to you lot) transform into a UN delegation and the way they take to it is awe-inspiring.
Cheers for including my link in your post. And it's great to hear people are studying and successfully implementing the Model UN into classrooms.
