This is my first attempt at a blog post, and I have chosen to look at 5 different RSS feeds that would impact my teaching career.  I am currently in the process of doing an action research project for my Masters degree on the subject of increasing special needs student's state test scores by implementing technology into my curriculum.  One of the first feeds I chose to follow was at the following link: http://ets.berkeley.edu/
