I=E2=80=99m in the middle of creating an article about the emergence of virtual classrooms & educational software in the K-12 area - and may have bit off more than I can chew. There are so many slapdash =E2=80=9Ceducational=E2=80=9D resources out there, so finding your site was kind of a relief. I figured you=E2=80=99d like to know that one of your links is broken (on this page: http://adsn.vstyle.co.il/fr/gallery/cgallery.html). It looks like Funschool changed hands with Kaboose and eventually Disney. The Disney site, unfortunately, has no educational merit evident: http://games.disney.com/ In light of this, I thought I=E2=80=99d recommend some of the more inventive and resourceful sites I=E2=80=99ve come across, perhaps as welcome replacements to the Funschool link.=20 MIT=E2=80=99s Scratch: Computer Programming & Coding Games for Children http://scratch.mit.edu/ 20 iPad Apps for Play-Based Learning=20 http://www.opencolleges.edu.au/informed/trends/20-apps-games-for-play-based-learning/ Developmental Games for Children with Autism Spectrum http://www.whizkidgames.com/ Free Educational Software for Children, Teachers & Schools http://www.sheppardsoftware.com/ Interactive Biology for Kids: The Life Cycle of a Flower http://www.proflowers.com/guide/interactive-plant-biology-kids-guide-life-cycle-flower I figured all of these resources would be great additions to your site and hope you=E2=80=99ll agree! Would you be interested in reading my article once it=E2=80=99s published? I=E2=80=99d be happy to send a link your way.=20 Best, Lindsey Lindsey Weiss lindsey@outbounding.com=20 =20 P.S. If you=E2=80=99d rather not receive emails from me in the future about educational research, not a problem.
