This month of October, many educators around the world will be celebrating Connected Educator Month.
This is a month full of activities, like the K12 Online Conference, to establish or deepen our online connections with others. Many of us have found that being “connected” has made our teaching and learning practices deeper and more rewarding, and that’s what this month is all about.
If you are new to Connected Educator Month, how can you participate? Here are a few ways.
- Sign up for the CEM newsletter.
- Check out the Connected Educator Starter Kit.
- If you know a teacher or administrator who isn’t yet “connected,” help them take one small step to get started. Perhaps watch a K12 Online conference session with them and then share what you learn via social media or a blog.
- If you aren’t on Twitter, join! (We are on Twitter @k12online.)
- Watch the CEM calendar for lots of great events, and take part in a few that resonate with you.
- Tell others about the K12 Online Conference, and consider organizing a local viewing party or incorporating our videos into your formal professional development.
Wishing you all a great Connected Educator Month!
