Hi,
How would you like to have 100 knowledgeable people working for you (for free) providing tips and their expert input on classroom topics such as using Google Tools in the classroom or Using an iPad in the classroom? Well, "crowdsourcing" allows a crowd of hundreds or thousands of people to group author "How to" documents and tip sheets.
One example of crowdsourcing that is focused on classroom topics is the "Interesting Ways" section of the EDTE.CH blog. Check it out here: http://edte.ch/blog/interesting-ways/
