What I like about this article is not the take-down of the  New York Times, although citing a case where a teacher sells resources deserves a take-down. As Glenn Waddell asks, "How much did TeachersPayTeachers pay for this fluff piece that was nothing more than an advertisement for teachers selling out other teachers." No, what really makes this article work for me is the substantial list of examples of teachers actually sharing with each other. Again, a lesson in terminology for journalists: if it involves an exchange of money, it's not "sharing" - it's "commerce".
