Blogger has improved since I first used it. Now it's easy to post photos. And you, QSI Dushanbe students, will have the chance to post of photo of your own (or one of mine if you wish). Have fun!

Educational Web Sites to post on del.icio.us
Hello QSI Students!
Your task today is to find an interesting and useful EDUCATIONAL web site. Please! no game or non educational sites allowed. There are a variety of sites for you to explore listed below.
Before you begin, open a new Notepad document and save it to your folder as "Web Sites". When you come across web pages that interest you, copy the URL (Ctrl + c) and then paste it into your web site document. You can save as many educational web sites as you like, but I'd like you to find at least 3 sites of interest.
For each web site, please include the following information:
1) The URL (the exact web site address of the web page that you selected)
2) A brief description of what you can learn from the web page
3) A longer description that explains why you like the web site
You can type all this information in your Notepad document so that you just need to copy and paste it when you post the URLs to www.del.icio.us
Happy exploration!
