Organizing this blog
Pax!
We need someone with some organizational skills!
In the meantime, let's look at the structure of this blog. There are two (2) ways to add to this blog.
1) If you want to talk about something that is already started, like the NW ESL Network, or Content Standards, you can just "Comment" to that thread (subject). You do not have to register, and you can even "post" (submit) anonomously.
2) If you want to start a NEW thread, then you have to email me (msenger@gecac.org), and I will invite you to be an author. You can then log-in and post your new thread. I would ask all "authors" to post a brief biography on the "Who are we?" thread.
We are still looking for ways to share documents.
If ANYONE has ANY suggestions, questions, or comments, please, please do not hesitate to contact me or any author.
Thanx!
Martin
