Great idea to have this blog for sharing. I checked out the TECHMATRIX and was very impressed. Thanks Mark!
The TechMatrix is a neat site. Looks like it is up to date. There is another matrix, I will post later.
Hi all! Thanks Mark for the blog site! I used this Techmatrix to find a program to help a student with a writing assignment. It looked like the Kidspiration/Inspiration might be the ticket for this student. It was difficult for her to generate thoughts and ideas for a paper. Has anyone used this before?
