Educational Blogs, Sites and Tools


  Using mainly as a base the Educational Technology VUB I tried to gather some of the educational blogs and sites that educators apparently prefer to follow and consult. They are presented in this page along with articles related to educational technology news and tools that I personally found interesting. Feel free to contribute to the article...

In this link you can find an article which presents several Technology blogs with publication related to educational technology, innovative projects, higher education and other : http://www.guardian.co.uk/higher-education-network/2012/oct/10/higher-education-blogs-network-technology
