We've created this site as a wiki so that teachers could add their own pages with Widgets-related alternate lesson plans, ideas for extending or modifying the course, links to online resources, prepared sharable files for others to download, and any other open and freely-sharable resource along these lines.
If you have registered an account, please go ahead and edit an existing page or create a new one as you would on any other wiki. Do note that we may edit or remove your contributions if we feel that they are not suitable for this wiki. Please read our User Guidelines if you are not sure what's appropriate. We reserve the right to update this from time to time.
If you do create a page, add a link to it and a short explanation here so others can find it:
