Teaching with the Internet K-12 (LETSNET) WEB

Brainchild of Education Professor Patrick Dickson, LETSNet is a dynamic on-line environment where teachers can develop their understandings of and find ways to effectively use the Internet in their classrooms. Teaching resources are organized around classroom teachers' stories, including lesson plans, curriculum standards and guides, pointers to e-mail discussion lists, and many other Internet and Web materials. The stories document teachers' feelings about their successes, lessons learned, and plans for future Internet activities with their students.
