Thing 10 What I was missing!

I have to say that the concept of RSS is probably my new favorite technology! I was always overwhelmed by having to go back to all the different sights and see if anything new had been posted. This allows me to see the blogs/articles/feeds that I specifically love, and filters them for new information/updates. This concept has made the job of  a teacher much easier. When researching new break through taking place in ABA all I have to do is go look at the Feedly RSS update for the information. Considering the field of study I want to pursue, being on the ball with the latest most innovative and irrelevant procedures is a must.
I loved how easy it was to setup. I did have a small issue with trying to search for concepts/ideas. It took me a while and a lot of trial and error before I figured that out. A little more instruction on the actual site about how to navigate may be beneficial. Overall the website was easy to navigate and I found relevant material in all my search (special needs, and physical fitness). 
I have already briefly touched on how this would benefit me in my future teaching career earlier. I want to be a Board Certified Behavior Analyst. This mean I will be doing a lot of research and a lot of study on the special education field, on disabilities, on behaviors, breakthroughs in related fields, etc. I would have access to updates as they are happening without sifting through article after article for relevant information.
The same way that I plan on using this to better myself and gain further understanding of my chosen feild, all teachers can do the same to improve themselves. Educational blogs could post new ideas or concepts that could be "borrowed" and reproduced for their own classes. The Cool Cat Teacher had some very insightful education instruction on her blog. I plan on referencing back to it as often as she updates. I want to be a master teacher and the only way that is going to happen is if I never stop trying to improve my abilities. I want to always be in a constant state of learning, not only for myself but for my students.
