teacherWiki

=Wiki for teachers to collaborate=

Imagine a situation where your assessment body develops a new curriculum statement. We all have to modify our programs, resources and assessments to fit this new curriculum. The assessment body comes out with some exemplars and such which is nice but it is really only the start. There is often skills/knowedge development that teachers need to engage in as well.

What about new teachers to the subject?

What if groups of interested teachers from various parts of the state decided to work together to develop resources for particular units of work?

How might that work?

What if we set up a wiki that we could all edit live. Make changes as we learn something or discover a resource etc.

Examples
