===My name is Howard Jason Davenport, and I am a TEEMS High School Math Education student. I am also a high school Mathematics teacher at Chamblee Charter High School. I currently teach grades 9-11, and I teach Math 1, 2, and 3 (which doesn't happen very often!). As a result, I have a unique and informed perspective regarding the current Mathematics curriculum, all of the imminent changes notwithstanding.=== ===I currently have three webpages - an old one, a new one, and a Facebook one.

===My main Web 2.0 focus in my classroom is undoubtedly social networking, via the class Facebook page (linked above). This is also my favorite, because the students actually use it a lot. Since most of my students have Facebook pages, I thought that having one for the class would provide added accessibility for my students, as well as a convenient way to disseminate information. I also use Facebook personally for keeping in touch with friends and family, and I have over 1000 contacts.===
