Edutopia website and a great article!

I did a google search today for, "benefits of applied learning" and one the search results was a website called Edutopia: Information and Inspiration for Innovative Teaching in K-12 Schools. Edutopia offers resources about adapting educational practices to our advancing world. It is also an online community. Educators have the opportunity to post comments about articles written by other teachers.

I came across one article on Edutopia written by a geometry teacher that relates to some of the things we've been discussing in 530 about Bloom's Taxonomy. Check it out!
