Connected Educator Series - REMC Association

MI Educators, The REMC Association of Michigan is excited to share our new project with you called the Connected Educator Series. The purpose of this project is to bring some of the most innovative educational technology ideas and applications straight to your inbox. As part of this series we will bring you weekly videos of MI educators explaining how they use technology in their teaching and showing you how you can get started in your own classroom. Our first showcase focuses on Nick Provenzano (aka "The Nerdy Teacher"), who teaches English at Grosse Pointe South High School. See how he and his students are using blogs to make connections and build communities far beyond the walls of their classroom. Nick will show you how he set up his own blog, how his students blog during class for notes, how student use blogs for reflection, and how blogs can connect parents and other classrooms to student work.
