Tiffany asked how different folks used some of the resources that can be found in ed1stop. Some of the sites - like Edutopia - are also listed on our FSUSD Ed Tech page under Quick Resources (right hand side): http://ww4.fsusd.k12.ca.us/technology/
Edutopia http://www.edutopia.org/ is a site that continually keeps me updated on project based learning, virtual field trips as well as general technology integration tips. It is smartly written and always full of new and valuable ideas.
Back to ed1stop:
Many math teachers have given very favorable feedback on the Middle School Math Project (Curriculum tab, left hand side): http://www.ctap4.org/math/
For those in middle or high school, the Math Quiz is quite engaging - but it might make you feel insecure about how much you know. Choose your competitor wisely! Also check out Digital Math and Digital English while at ed1stop.
Anyone who teaches California history needs to use Calisphere (listed on Project Help): http://www.calisphere.universityofcalifornia.edu/ It has a wonderful array of primary sources.
Trying to learn about reading and writing at the elementary level?
Check out Between the Lions, based on the PBS series: http://pbskids.org/lions/
Of course, any primary teacher should make sure their students know about Starfall: http://www.starfall.com/

I've heard there may be a question about keeping our district's account with Ed1stop for 2008/2009. Please tell me it ain't true. This would be a horrible loss of such a great resource. What can be done to help support it, if this is true?
