About this trail:
This trail is a collection of Trailfire trails created by graduate students in ECI 511 (distance education technology integration course) at North Carolina State University. Most of the students in ECI 511 are teachers who have created a trail for their own K-12 students, so the various trails in this collection should provide some topic ideas for Trailfire trails in K-12. I personally think the best trails go beyond annotating the Web page and include instructions for students to try out something on the page (e.g., take the quiz, do the simulation), or questions for students to answer from the information found on the page. Some of the students' trails below include guiding questions. See, for example, trails by Kelly Glover, Lisa Johnson, Earnestine Pollard, Robert Thomas, Valerie Faulkner, Alice Hager, Karen Hughes, and Kathleen Mapson.
