The Wiki was created to accompany an article with the title "Using Technology to Improve your English Language Teacher's Assocaition", written by Sara Hannam and Marisa Constantinides for IATEFL.

media type="custom" key="29661387" **Why we have created this wiki**

The reason we both decided to create this wiki was that we did not want the article to be just a list of weblinks, but thought that a repository of useful links, tutorials and advice would be more useful to members of Teachers' Associations who are less well versed in some of the tech tools which they could use for the benefit of their TA.

In these pages, you will find all the links mentioned in the article as well as many additional links and usefull video tutorials or short screencasts to help you understand how you could use these tools.

There are three main sections to our articlei:
 * Widen your TA's web presence and increase your membership
 * Retain your members and keep them active and engaged
 * Add functionality, i.e. to help you do some tasks more easily as TA board members and officers are unpaid volunteers with limited time

The wiki does not follow these subsections, but aims to include all the links related to these three major categories.
