I don't agree that it's either unscalable or crowd-source unfriendly. Doing
it in a room with a whiteboard isn't feasible, but mailing list discussions
certainly are.
Scaling it up just requires getting plenty of educators on board, and they
become part of the crowd. There are a *lot* of great 4th grade teachers who
have decades of experience teaching these concepts to a lot of kids with
different learning styles. It sounds to me like we need to recruit some and
get them involved with the discussion.
I'm traveling for a couple of weeks, but when I get back I'm going to start
talking to some of the teachers in my area.
Shawn.
