Mod 6 resource

This may be a website many of you know about, but I can't get over how helpful it is when working on building a PLC like we currently are for our final project, or studying PLC's and how to make them effective.

The great part about this site is that it is so simple to use. It is broken down into three parts, so that right when you get to the site you have can figure out where you need to go.
1. There is a section called Blog and Discussions which allows you to connect with other people in PLC's and use them as resources.
2. There is a section called Evidence of Effectiveness which provides proof of how effective different PLC's across the nation are working for people.
3. And last is a section of tools. Many of us are a bit lost and don't always know where or how to start, and this section can help to provide direction when we find ourselves in that spot.

THE BEST THING ABOUT THIS SITE IS that I found a link on it to inspirational stories about high schools using PLC's, and one of the stories was about my high school in Yuma, Colorado.

It is crazy to think that my little hometown of a few thousand people and my tiny high school popped into my grad class research, but it shows you how technology is shrinking the world!
