Subject: want to help set educational technology standards?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi Fellows!
FYI -- Here's a call for teachers to help write national educational
technology standards. Whatever the merits and demerits of standards, it
helps to have them more intelligently written than not; and who better to
create intelligent decisions than AM Fellows?
Cheers, Bill Tally
