There are a lot of great resources available for use. I made the mistake early on by trying to read all of them. It just isn’t possible. I have settled on ASCD (http://www.ascd.org/Default.aspx) for their books and journal, Educational Leadership (http://www.ascd.org/publications/educational-leadership.aspx) currently. In addition, I still stay current in my field with ASEE (https://www.asee.org) and CTAT (https://www.ctat.org). The volume of other resources within the DLL courses over the past year and a half have forced me to cut back on other publications. Twitter is my go-to source for staying in contact with other sources. I am able to allow my PLN to help “curate” other sources for me and manage my time better. Using Tweetdeck gives me the opportunity to follow a couple of threads and lists at the same time and not spend hours online combing through things.
These resources allow me to stay in touch with items in my classroom and also areas of interest for me. My current interest areas include computational thinking, accessibility, and standards-based grading. There is a lot of overlap in these, so it is easy to manage. My proposed article will definitely fall in one of these areas. This also fits well with my innovation plan.
