Are YOU a Discovery Education Network (DEN) Star?

3/2/2012

 
Attention, all CRSD teachers!  At the recent ASTE conference, members of the CRSD team learned about an exciting opportunity to learn and grow through the Discovery Education Network (DEN). Members of the DEN have the opportunity to participate in community forums, gain access to additional resources, and develop leadership skills by participating in a nationwide network of educators, all linked by Discovery Education. It's FREE to join, so (if you haven't already), JOIN TODAY!

In addition, teachers who want to take the next step in their own professional development can sign up to be Discovery Education Network "Stars."  Signing up is free, and your obligation as a "star" is to share technology ideas with colleagues at least twice each year. Simple! And the benefits to being a "star" are impressive!

For more information on the DEN or on what it takes to be a DEN Star, check out the Discovery Education website, visit with a colleague who attended ASTE this year, or contact Tammy.
