I love my USB drives, but a camera is a great gift. Pictures keep giving. Suddenly student work can take on a whole new life.

I don't know how long ago this article was written but $20-$30 for a 1 gig is an incredible high price for a flash drive unless it has advanced features. The nice part about this technology is the fact that many companies are competing for your dollar. I have seen 2 gigs as low as $8.00 for a store brand.
As a teacher I am forever shopping around.

I love my usb drives. I have
I love my usb drives. I have several for several different uses. One is for the different examples of what my students create. It is great for my records and makes it easier to post their work on the website. Luckily we have a shared drive where the kids can save and I can access them for my usb drive. At the end of the year I make CDs for all and we have a fresh start.
