| 2 votes | Science Speakers - reaching, and working with public institutions | rpcvadam | What is the best way to connect teachers with resources in science and technology? I built https://mrsec.wisc.edu/Edetc/ScienceSpeakers/ to meet this need and already have some registered speakers, but my web host has become afraid of negative publicity should there be a bad experience. Are there better hosting options available, or web designers interested in collaborating to circumvent some of these problems? What ideas do people have for disseminating such a tool after it is built, and ensuring its acceptance and sustainability in schools? |
