Abstract

This paper presents a case study describing the efforts of teachers to improve communication among their colleagues at their respective schools, an elementary school and a college of education. Frustrated by the lack of time to collaborate with fellow teachers the creators used the Internet to improve communication and to work toward developing a community of learners among teachers. Still in their infancies the two sites are constantly changing as their use suggests improvements, but the goal of the endeavors has been reached: the creation of learning communities among teachers, replete with a true sense of communication and collaboration.
