Welcome!

Please feel at home. I'll show you the place and focus on the main points.
First, the left column. Every day you can read news about education from different English speaking countries. Links to substantial sites are also provided in this column.
Then, the middle column. Look at the Forum. About 20 discussions have been opened. They'll be used as folders where our ideas/materials will be made available and kept. The Blog is for musings on subjects, topics and issues you find interesting or relevant for this community.
Finally, there's a chat as a bar across the bottom of the page. It can be an excellent tool for real time communication on everything you feel like participating.
Help and orientation will be provided if requested.
