“Book Club It” Lets You Easily Create Online Book Discussion Groups
Book Club It is a new web tool that lets you easily create and participate in online book discussion groups. After registering, you can quickly find a thumbnail image of pretty much any book out there and set privacy options (you can make it public, or can set it so you can only access it if you have the precise url address and participants have been approved). Online polls related to the book can be set-up in seconds.

This is a good idea, Mike (and Larry)! The issue I come across when working with teachers who would like to create a book club with students, is that most students I work with do not have email accounts. Some schools are looking at Gaggle while others are allowing students Google gmail accounts for the Google Docs features and turning off the email feature.
Email can be such a positive! In the case of Google, student email can be set up to receive only, or send, or send and receive. The accounts can be set up so that they live inside a "walled garden", email only received and sent by members of the same domain.
I'll definitely share this resource with my groups. If it will encourage dialogue, I'm in! Thanks!

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource
Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and
other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching
practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
