It looks like we have very few people who can share ideas in South Africa through taking advantage of available social networking tools and the power of the internet. I would like to communicate to as many math educators as possible, especially around South Africa, not just within my district or circuit, so as to validate the feedback/responses I get from my pupils that are they general or not.
I think we need to keep sharing ideas and communicating new methodologies to keep ourselves relevant and up to standard with the rest of the world. The use of advanced technological innovations like Twitter, Facebook, etc can be a very powerful tool for learning and teaching, not just gossiping!
I am really certain that, if we can even start by having things like discussion lists/group e-mails with the same interest in the Googlegroups or Yahoogroups, etc we can be able to get somewhere. Other subjects (CAT and IT) are taking advantage of this technologies, why not in Math, sciences, etc.
