Middle Level Educators from etmooc and Twitter gather together through

this wiki [|Diigo]

and their own blogs

to figure out the new literacies and connectedness that our students need in our curriculum.

We welcome all Middle Level Educators to join us in developing conversation, resources, and projects that help us inspire our students towards their dreams and their future success.

We ask, and together, seek to answer:
 * How important is connected learning? Why?
 * Is it possible for our classrooms to support this kind of learning? If so, how?
 * What skills and literacies are necessary for connected learning? (and how to assess?)
 * How do we develop these?
 * How do we remix what we do to transform our teaching into learning worthy of our students’ futures?”

If you are a middle level educator, won't you join us?
