Please review

Teachers are selling study guides online: For all those teachers who take work home at night, creating lessons they hope kids will like, the reward is a good day in class. Now there could be another payoff: cash. Teachers are selling their original lectures, course outlines and study guides to other teachers through a new Web site launched by New York entrepreneur Paul Edelman. The site, www.teacherspayteachers.com, aims to be an EBay for educators. For a $29.95 yearly fee, sellers can post their work and set their prices. Buyers rate the products. More.

What a timely piece of information. A web-based repository for teachers (and for those among us whom are interested in what, why and how teachers teach).

Perhaps this could serve as an initial business-model for our efforts to create an interactive, real-time, two-way video enabled, 21st Century web-based digital learning environment (repository portal) for students, teachers, parents and communities at large.

Thanks for keeping your antennae UP!

Best,

Jim
