Excerpt: 

The World Wide Web sites collected on this page reflect the considerable variety of uses for computing and related forms of electronic technology in teaching. They are arranged in no strict order, but tend to proceed from rather general and theoretical resources to some instructive examples of specific applications of technology to teaching and learning. Like many other web sites, this one changes and grows as I find time to revise and update these links. I am grateful to those who have made suggestions, corrections, and introduced me to additional resources. [N.B. Many of these links are old, some are probably dead. Since I no longer have time to update the site as frequently as I should, I provide this warning to visitors.]

Annotation: 

Concise, well-organized source page for K-12. Good starting point for further exploration.
