Hi fellow Teachers,

I'm at the older end of the teaching spectrum (in my 44th classroom year) and interested in new possibilities that communication capabilities and capacity will/might offer.

Since 'retiring' from the full-time classroom, I now enjoy my classroom time with preservice teacher candidates, specifically working with Mathematics education.

Regards,

Dave
