We did not adopt Connected Mathematics, but our teachers do pick and choose lessons from it - like Justin's Garden, WUMPS, etc.

Hi Diana, With your work in Web Technology, I recommend you take a look at Wiziq's virtual classroom and authorstream's power point presentation platform. Both are web based platforms, have a bunch of features and free basic service.

Hi Diana, I am head of teaching and learning in a middle school in Australia which is a revolution as we generally don't cater for middle school here. We are currently looking to research good practice on an international level in the hopes of designing a curriculum and pedagogical structure that really promotes engagement and learning. I was wondering if you could sent me some advice re your thoughts on what makes a Middle school great? Cheers, Jodie

Hey Diana,

Our Brainyflix video contest just ended, and I wanted to thank you for helping us get the word out. We got 800 submissions from across the country!

That said, MIT was really happy with the results and will let us run another contest, so we're going for it! But this time, we're gonna have kids create Brainypics flashcards - which are images and sentences paired up with a one of our SAT/ACT words. The contest ends May 22nd, and there'll be iTunes and a cash prize like last time. To boot, we'll double the payout if the kids can hit a certain goal. More details at brainyflix.com/main/contest_rules.

Do you mind passing my message along to students and your HS colleagues again?

Thanks,
Jack
