New Year, New Resolve

I'm reviewing my most commonly used sites and prioritizing so that I can be more active. Of course, doing anything online I stumble across five new things that I want to join!
Here are my priorities:

• International PLP NING with Will Richardson & Sheryl Nussbaum
• my blog
• twitter

I'm also thinking of

• returning to www.librarything.com
• joining http://englishcompanion.ning.com/
• submitting lesson plans to awaytoteach.com
  
• developing a webpage for my school's literary magazine
  

I'm interested in thinking and learning more about using assessments to inspire creativity. Some recent conversations with non-teachers have been very enlightening. It's so important not only to remember that my students learn differently than I do/did. When talking with other adults about their school experience, I get so much insight about how I might help my own students now.
In "Measuring Skills for the 21st Century" by Elena Silva on , she states

the skills that really matter for the 21st century—the ability to think creatively and to evaluate and analyze information—

I want to keep this in the forefront as I continue to develop my plans for this new semester.

Happy New Year and leave me a comment!
