BACK FOR ANOTHER YEAR!!

Greetings!
Welcome to the 2009-2010 school year.
The QUEEN GEEK is back for another year of information, tips and tricks for your classroom and with technology. Enjoy!

You may or may not have seen the "Texting While Driving" public service announcement that has hit the airwaves.
CAUTION it is DIFFICULT to watch!

I have attached it to the very bottom of the PSHS Driver Ed department site-Here it is for those who have not seen it:

With that as a prelude, I don't believe that I have ever posted a tech resource for driver education. Well here you go....

The New York Times has an excellent interactive game that every teen driver or aspiring driver should play at least once. It is called Gauging Your Distraction. The game requires players to try to read and reply to three text messages while negotiating lanes of traffic. The game ends when all three messages have been sent. I've tried it with disasterous consequences--but then my texting skills are limited!!
