I am a first year art teacher, and I would have been very overwhelmed by
researching lesson plans and writing my curriculum without this email
list!!! On the web are some excellent resources also, for building up a
stock of good ideas for future lessons or finding something to fit a
particular topic.
Also, the email list is a great place to vent, to get ideas for other
topics and issues we all deal with such as classroom management and the
parental connection, not to mention administravia.
I rely on computer resources and I'm very grateful for them, all the time,
in my teaching.
