 * 1) On the "Math Labs" page, view: lab examples, lab template, math dept curriculum, and core concepts to consider for math discovery labs.
 * 2) Download "Mathematics Discovery Lab" template.
 * 3) Create 3 or more Math Labs using the template, and cite the source(s) of your ideas, even if it is your teacher edition.
 * 4) Upload your Math Labs onto our "New Math Labs" page.
 * 5) Review and comment on these New Math Labs created by colleagues by clicking on the "Discussion" tab of the "New Math Labs" page. Revise your labs as necessary.
 * 6) Complete the project by August 10, 2010 so that a presentation may be created.
 * 7) Be prepared to assist in presenting your labs at the full faculty meeting this August. Each of us will run a small workshop/class demonstrating the use of the math labs we created. The faculty and administration will break into 6 groups, each lead by one of us.
