How did your work with your team impact your content knowledge and pedagogy?
I learned a great deal more. Supossedly I had the "Arctic Knowledge" because of my TEA experiencce, but my team has a great deal of teaching experience and knowledge. It was a great group effort to work together on content as well as pedagogy.

We combined bibliographies and websites. All of our classes made presentations to other classroom. We have a very co-operative and positive system.
