> Paul Lockhart wrote his "Lament" in 2002, and since then it's been a focal point for gathering and strengthening threads of meaning and significance in mathematics education. You can read the original "Lament" as a PDF document online, or its expanded version, edited by Keith Devlin, as a paper book.

> David Wees writes: My life since I graduated from teacher training in 2002 has been an never ending adventure. I have lived in 4 different countries since then and have met the love of my life and we started our family. I wouldn't trade a moment of it, despite some of the difficulties I have faced. At my website, I showcase projects I have been involved in. I also write articles about incorporating technology into teaching which is a major passion of mine.

> Richard DeMerchant writes: I have a passion for mathematics education that I have carried with me as I worked across the west and northern parts of Canada. Working as a teacher, vice principal and curriculum developer for three Ministries of Education I look forward to my next foray back to the classroom in the fall. I see social media as a tool for continuing my professional growth. You can check out the latest thoughts on my blog or follow me on Twitter (@rvdemerchant).
