Embrace Challenge!

Embrace Challenge is in the process of leaving Yahoo servers and going to Go Daddy servers. Over the next few months, parts of the website will be changing and getting new locations.

The website can now be accessed via embracechallenge.com, .info, .org

These domains may split into other parts of the website in the future, but for now I'm being sefish and want to own several Embrace Challenge domain names.

The .net will take a while to transfer because it is THE account name at Yahoo. Keeping up with the web as renting space gets more expensive is a challenge. There is so much to learn, all of the time...

The Challenge of being an Educator

Education: being a teacher

This part of the website is designed to provide information that may be useful to student or newish teachers. The original pages were written by a former science teacher, thus most of the links eminating from this page talk about teaching science. This website is also open for other teachers to share advice and more! If you want to share small comments, please put them on the message board. If you want to share lots of info, then contact the webmaster to request space.

Angles this section of the website takes:

The website is hosted by a former science teacher and therefore will naturally cater to science teaching more than other disciplines

You can also check out the general education links or the Science Education Links page for links to other websites that are “out there” to support teachers. Many provide much more information than is provided here.

Last major update August 1, 2007

I am connecting with Vista Print to promote their services. Yes, I do get a small kick-back if you purchase stuff through them by using a link from any of the Embrace Challenge pages.

I am also connecting with a few companies to specifically advertise for them. Clicking on an ad will help me fund this and my other websites.
