Welcome to my wiki! Over the last few months, my students and fellow contributors have been creating some pretty interesting resources. Some are fairly developed. Others are still just kernals of an idea that need some fleshing out. Feel free to take a look around and add your ideas to this wiki. Please drop me an e-mail with your comments or suggestions at budtheteacher@gmail.com. This is currently an open wiki. Add documents; make changes; experiment. Thanks!

My activity on my blog as well as on Twitter have diminished as of late. I still find an incredible amount of value/entertainment by engaging in the online discussions, I just find it harder to make time to write and send out 140 character tidbits.

A few months ago I helped a friend win the Pepsi Refresh Challenge, which gave $25,000 to one of my favorite music associations, the Associate of Redlands Bowl. The following month he did it again, this time at the $50K level. The basic idea is that there is strength in numbers. So TwHistory has teamed up with other groups to form an alliance by supporting each others' projects.

Science, engineering, and technology permeate nearly every facet of modern life and hold the key to solving many of humanity's most pressing current and future challenges. The United States' position in the global economy is declining, in part because U.S. workers lack fundamental knowledge in these fields.
