We're gaining members often...and I have a feeling there's more out there that just haven't gotten around to it! I know how busy we can all be! But if you're getting this email than you're one that's found time already! Just some updates-- The webpage is password protected--use your email address as your username and the password you put on the membership form. If you have any problems getting in, let me know and I'll double check it all to make sure everything's spelled right, etc. I hope to wrap up the officer positions in the next week or so--I'm still trying to find volunteers for 3 or 4 positions...if you've thought about it, go ahead and volunteer! Once the board is in place, we can begin "real" operations. Now that we are up and running...give me all you've got! What weblinks do you use in your classroom or for resources? What great labs, activities, hints, tests, etc., do you have that you can share with others. Don't assume no one would want to see your stuff...I'm sure we each have things others haven't thought of or gotten around to, yet. I truly want to make our webpage a one-stop shop for chemistry teaching resources...and I need everyone's input to make it that way! Also, if you have any ideas for professional development, workshops, outreach, programs, services, opportunities that you'd like to see...let us know! I want to be a group "for the people" and provide things you really want! Just a reminder on ListServ workings--replying to a ListServ email will send it to everyone. Try to remember to include your personal email address in the email so that if people want to email just you, they can. Also, when replying to a digest, put in a "subject" that applies to your topic so that it doesn't show up as "Re: Digest" or something like that. To change your settings, visit //www.freelists.org/lists/kact Thanks so much...I'm so excited about this group! Kelly detersk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
