Todd Finley is an author and frequent contributor to Edutopia, but we just discovered his newsletter, "Inside Todd's Brain." Dr. Finley's blog posts include graphic summaries of his content, and his newsletter also includes recommendations for a tech tool, a video, research, and a brain hack.

With the re-opening of the (new and improved) Region 10 Abrams building, we're reflecting on learning spaces this year, and we're enjoying Dr. Bob Dillon's work on this subject. He just released a free e-book about design and learning spaces, and it includes some easy-to-implement ideas. See the information in this Tweet, and fill out his Form for your copy of the book. |

LinkClump is a new Chrome Extension find for us. This extension allows you to highlight a lot of text that includes links, and all links open as new tabs.

Meredith Akers is a principal in the Houston area, and she is an awesome educator to add to your PLN. She shares three apps in this blogpost, and probably (at least) one is new to you! Add some pizazz to your graphics and videos with the Cavna App, Legend, or Quik.
