You are much more likely to get a fast answer to an informational question on a discussion board than by E-mailing keepers of information Web sites. You can find quite a complete list of Homeschooling Message Boards on the Web at the Finding Homeschool Support on the Internet site, which has good content that make its obnoxious Geocities advertisements worth putting up with. On the same site you can also find very detailed information about mailing lists , Internet Relay Chats , and other on-line discussion opportunities for homeschoolers. Each board or mailing list has its own flavor. Visit a few and decide which one you find the most informative and helpful, and then join in and answer the questions of other participants.
Sharing is what on-line discussion is all about.
Discussion Board for Homeschoolers Kaleidoscapes was one of the pioneers in offering Web-based threaded discussion boards for homeschoolers. The Kaleidoscapes message boards are overseen by the Kaleidoscapes founder, who is both a homeschooling mom and computer expert, and by guest hosts chosen for their involvement in particular issues related to homeschooling. The Kaleidoscapes site was favorably reviewed in the November 1997 Yahoo Internet Life review of homeschooling sites, and has since received highly favorable reviews in several other articles about homeschooling sites. I have made the Kaleidoscapes High School and College Tips board my default home page when I open my Web browser. Homeschoolers Curriculum Swap Possibly the earliest Web-based solution for trading used curricular materials and site of very interesting discussion boards and interesting archived discussions.
