Welcome to the group, Suz. I'm an elementary teacher during the day,
but, because I also sometimes work at my local Teacher's Center (a
training and resource center funded by New York State), I like to
exchange ideas and resources with educators who represent the full
span of grades. To this end, I joined this group several months ago.
It's been very quiet lately, but that just means it needs to have
people like you jump start it for it to preform well again.
If it helps your project, here's a couple other online groups you migh
want to check out that are geared for the secondary level:
Math4U, a very active group- it has almost 3,000 members. It's meant
for 9th- graduate students, as well as for people who just enjoy Math.
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Math4U (I'm one of the co-moderators.)
EngTeach-Talk, a moderately active group that's affiliated with the
NCTE (National Council of Teachers of English).
