Spreadsheets

At Boise State there is a program called Building Bridges with Technology where technology-supported lesson plans are shared to help inspire teachers to utilize technology in developing educational opportunities for their students.  Here is the link to more information on the project: http://edtech.boisestate.edu/bridges/tslessons.htm
There are so many great examples on this website.  I think I prefer to create my own rather than use somebody else's lesson plan.  I find it makes what I teach more impactful, because it means more to me.  I could take some of the ideas on this site and tweak them to utilize them in my classroom.  The specifics would depend on which class I was teaching and even on the students I have in that particular classroom.  Using PowerPoint and Excel are effective tools in assisting learning.
