>Dear List Members,

>

>I am in the process of planning an issue of "Focus on Basics" on numeracy. 

>

>If you've done any research on numeracy recently (teacher, action, 

>academic,

>whatever) and think it might make a good article for the issue, please 

>let me know. You can share it on list or contact me off list at 

>b.garner4 at verizon.net

>

>If you know of any teachers or programs doing a spectacular job with 

>numeracy, please let me know, on or off list.

>

>If there are any issues relating to numeracy that you think should be 

>addressed in the issue, please let me know.

>

>If you would like to be on the editorial board for the issue, please 

>let me know. Requirement: experience teaching math, willingness to read 

>and share thoughts about articles as they go through their draft 

>stages, ability to participate in about 10 conference calls stretched 

>out over a three or four month period.

>

>We offer a small stipend for both writing and editorial board 

>participation, which in no way compensates you for the time you will put

in.

>

>I look forward to hearing from you,

>Thanks!
