Note: The items with *sign are not available now. Dr. John Thompson, the Editor of the Journal for Computing Teachers explained: "ISTE redid its website in September and has had problems with the JCT materials. I've been "encouraging" them for five weeks to get all the material back online at the site but they're still working on it. I'm not very happy with their inability to fix the problem in a more timely manner."
