Wednesday Session 1.5

In an informal session following my early departure from the previous session, I was able to have an active discussion with Adam Frey, the creator of wikispaces.com. He showed me how to sign up as a user for wikispaces (complete access is available for teachers). My idea was to use wikis as a forum for collaboration among the math teachers. We could use it for posting lesson plans, activities, student work, standards, and other ideas that teachers have. We've always talked about creating a database of resources for teachers to contribute to and to gather information from. A good example of this was another site that I was directed to here, a site that was shown as one of the Tuesday sessions -- Math Curriculum Topics.
