About Us.......

If you are new to SmithOnline, we welcome you.  

SmithOnline started as a project to help teachers in local area schools to find technology related resources that were in a central location.  Our mission was to provide this central location, so teachers would not have to spend time searching the net or, but go to one location and choose which resource fits their classroom needs.  Teachers could then spend the extra time developing new ways to implement technology into their curriculum.

We are continually updating our site with new and interesting online resources that are designed to enhance learning. We do not endorse any of the sites but provide them as a resource for teachers to view and determine if they are applicable for their classroom. We hope that by providing these resources in a centralized location, teachers will be able focus more on developing new and interesting activities while reducing the amount of time spent searching the internet.

We also hope the site will genrate thought, questions on how we can motivate, inspire and challenge students.
