Rules of the Road for tictech, as of December 1, 2002. This message is sent
at the beginning of the month to all list members. Tictech is a moderated
email list for the discussion and sharing of technology related education
issues in Seattle and beyond.
(December Thoughts: Welcome to 30 new members in the past couple of weeks!
Lately, there has been some discussion about the very existence of tictech.
Members should feel free to express their opinions on this - and other
topics. I sometimes hear from those who are worried about saying things on
tictech. As moderator, part of my job is to make sure list discussions stay
civil and on track. However, what we talk about, as long as it relates to
technology in education, is up to all of us. The more we discuss and share,
the more we (and ultimately our students) learn. - Mark)

1) Distribution of information - timely information critical to technology
in Seattle's schools
