renegade technology director from Racine, Wisconsin. Just a few months after his promotion from network manager to director of information systems of the Racine Unified School District last summer, Tim Peltz made a revolutionary move: he removed the firewalls that had blocked students from many parts of the Internet. He didn't just remove a brick here and there. He tore those walls completely down.

Innovative ways technology is helping disabled students in schools
by Sue Morton, Helium
Innovative technology is helping students with disabilities in many ways. Creative teachers have taken the technology that is available and using it in ways the designers may not have thought of. Here are some examples of new technology and how it can be used to help students with disabilities in the classroom. iPods are not only for music. These portable music devices can be used in a variety of ways in the classroom. Audio books can be downloaded for students who cannot read at the same level as other students. This allows them to listen to the reading selection instead. This technology allows students with disabilities to participate in grade level discussions and classroom reading assignments.

Rival environmental groups are lining up supporters to try to take control of a new net domain aimed at green groups.
At least two consortiums are known to be preparing bids to control .eco.
In March this year, former US vice president Al Gore backed a bid by the California group Dot Eco to operate the so-called "top level domain" (TLD).
But now a Canadian environmental group known as Big Room has launched a competing bid to manage the TLD, which is similar to .com or .uk.
Both firms plan to apply to Icann - the regulatory body that oversees domain names - for the creation of .eco early in 2010.

The report is produced again in 2009 as a collaboration between the New Media Consortium and the EDUCAUSE Learning Initiative (ELI), an EDUCAUSE program.
