“Crowdsourcing” could be — eventually — the impetus for teachers to routinely share information about how best to teach material to students. That is the goal of Ley Hathcock, digital convergence specialist for Hall County Schools, who has, in some ways, been inventing the program. The effort — creating a database of online teaching resources for teachers — is a way to put “some of the best ways we know of to teach within arm’s reach of teachers,” Hathcock said.
