== Adding new pages ==

Hi Emesee,

Nice to see your edits here. When you make a new page about an entire category, please include some external links to discussions about the topic - where are people discussing this aspect of pedagogy, or this subject of learning; for primary school students or others? If you just include a sentence or a few words, the page won't help anyone else come up with new ideas, and may be deleted. Regards, --[[User:Sj|Sj]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Sj|<font style="color:#f70; font-size:70%">talk</font>]] 09:07, 19 December 2009 (UTC)

: Yes, I agree with SJ's comment. I've added the Math category tag to the new pages you've created [[Addition]], [[Division]], [[Calculus]]. It is vcery useful to link pages into larger concepts on the wiki like the [[Math]] page. Unless these pages get developed into something more than a simple declarative sentence like "Math is good", then they are not adding much to the discussion about using the XO to enhance education. It might be best to work a bit on fleshing out some of the pages you have already created rather then just generating new stubs. [[User:Cjl|cjl]] 18:01, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
