That is exactly what teachers told me.
In fact, some of them told me that they would
cooperate if they receive money to learn and apply
this new methodology for their classes... 

For that small reason, my website "aulasdigitales.net"
is in a permanent hibernation state.
In this website, I wanted to publish one stack (from each teacher)
that helped their students to understand and practice their
most difficult topic from their classroom.

Just one stack with their most difficult topic.

Created and published for free.

Students would benefited the most.

Could not start without cooperation from teachers.

I completely understand Richmond when he wrote:
"The reluctance on their part to take any 
risks and/or try anything original was 
majorly depressing."

But tell me...
It's any different in the place where you live? :(
