Dear Colleague,
Over the course of last year, my first year of teaching, I spent many late nights planning lessons for the following day. During those nights, a single thought gnawed at me: Thousands of other teachers across the country were doing just as I was, and thousands more had done so every year for decades. Yet there was no way for me to fully benefit from the experience of all those who had come before.
I’ve created this website to change that. It’s a new type of collaborative website called a 'wiki,' where most pages can be edited not just by a webmaster, but by any registered user. That means you can post lesson plans, links, handouts, PowerPoint presentations—virtually anything! And you don’t even have to know HTML. Editing a page is as easy as using a word processor.
My vision is that over time, we can develop an extensive library of creative, finely-tuned, engaging, exciting lessons. If you share that vision, please register and help me shape the site, whether you’re a new teacher yourself or a veteran. You can also click here to learn how to use the site or read the first post on my weblog to learn more about the idea behind it.
