Minutes

The meeting log has been transcribed.

Introductions

We had introductions from walter, rita, FGrose, caroline, jt4sugar, manugupta, deepank, tomeu, and garycmartin and regrets from tony forster (for whom a 2am meeting time was not going to work) It was noted that none of us are classroom teachers, although many of us have intimate connections to teachers.

Discussion of our mission

We had a general consensus around our mission and spent most of our time discussion means and goals.

Survey design

We are putting together a survey for the teachers attending a Sugar workshop in Uruguay. We'd like to be comprehensive, covering a range of topics, such as

• Please add your questions.
• We are considering using http://www.limesurvey.org to host the survey. It seems to have good multilingual support.

Decide on a regular meeting time

We acknowledge that the meeting time was not ideal, especially for teachers and those living in UTC+11. Please add your preferred meeting time to the list we are accumulating.
