    In collaboration with the Teacher Education Network, I’m sharing the following information:
    —————————————————————-
    I hope that everyone is finding time to relax, reflect and recharge during the summer. I am working on some research and looking for some ideas and resources for educators for professional development and some of the benefits of being a connected educator.

If you have a few minutes, could you answer a few of the questions, and possibly share the survey within your PLN? 

    If you have more ideas to share, feel free to add a note and I will contact you to discuss more ideas.

    Thanks for your time!
