First thing you need to do is sign up for an account. This is totally free with no restrictions accept for some banner ads. Because we are all teachers, we can have the ads removed and get some bonus features by registering the site for educational use. I find that the best way to learn is to dive right in. If you play around with site for a while you are most likely to figure out most stuff on your own. If that sounds overwhelming to you, or is simply not your style, then I'll make it nice and easy for you.
If you have any thing "ed tech" that you are having trouble with feel free to stop by and ask for help (I actually really like this stuff). I can't promise that I can answer everything, but I'll do my best!
