* B O O K W I N K * Video Booktalks for Kids, Teachers and Librarians
"Bookwink's mission is to inspire kids to read. Through podcasting and web video, we hope to connect kids in Grades 3 through 8 with books that will make them excited about reading. The videos are approximately 3 minutes long and are updated monthly. Each video booktalk is about a different topic, and additional read-alikes can be found on the Bookwink website. You can look for books by subject, grade level, author or title. We are constantly updating the book lists with our newest favorite books."

Booktalks and Video Booktalks [from Scholastic.com]
"Booktalking is one of the most effective way to get kids reading. Entice young readers to open a book … engage their interest … invite them into a story. You are free to use these booktalks in a live verbal presentation without express permission or acknowledgement. You may either quote them word-for-word, or excerpt or adapt them any way you like. Be creative -- make these booktalks your own and add them to your repertoire!"

Research on Technology in English Education || Information Age Publishing
"This book brings together the voices of leading English Education researchers who work to offer views into the changing landscape of English as a result of the use of digital media in classrooms, out of school settings, universities and other contexts in which readers and writers work. But, as in most useful texts, the purpose is more nuanced and far reaching than simply offering a glimpse into where we currently find ourselves as a field. In sum, the collection brings together and interweaves what we are coming to know and understand about teaching English within a shifting digital landscape as well as the implications for teacher education and the discipline of English Education specifically."

Reframing educational research: Resisting the 'what works' agenda - Google Books
"ossibilities for the use of research in educational practice are often written off due to the history, politics and interests of the ostensibly separate worlds that researchers and practitioners occupy. However, a more optimistic account highlights the ways these communities share a common need for practice-based theories, which enable them to make sense of a wide range of issues in education, including pedagogy, learning, and educational equity.
