Announcing Teacher Focus, an Online Community of Educators
Lucy Vaysman

In my work as a high school teacher and later as a college professor, I have found that outside of conferences there was relatively little opportunity for those working in our profession to communicate and share information and experience. I have also felt that there is a real gap in the utilization of the resources that the Internet offers to my colleagues. As an example: every year educators "invent" a method of teaching that has been around for years, instead of actually building on that method of teaching and allowing it to evolve. I feel that I can help change all that. I also strongly believe that together teachers can achieve more. With that in mind, and in partnership with the talented designers at ThinkHost.com, I have set up Teacher Focus, an online community forum where educators can easily communicate with each other through threaded online discussions. http://www.teacherfocus.com/
