lesson plans in it, beyond the concept sounding like a great idea now? A
simple depository/reference site will die unless it has great meaning. Are
teachers actively searching lesson plans on the Internet and through other
sources so that this will give them a local source? Will the school require
that teachers file lesson and unit plans? Identifying the motivation will
help with defining the site.
Another point to consider is whether this is part of your plan to document
and map a curriculum, which is bigger picture, or if it is just to share
lesson plans.
Since your school uses Wikispaces, would that be a viable alternative?
