Join the Crowd! Expanding Teaching Skills that Matter through the EdTech Maker Space! |
|
|---|
|
In a series of upcoming EdTech Maker Space projects, we’ll develop free, open resources that support the implementation of Teaching Skills That Matter. TSTM is led by our partners the American Institutes for Research and funded by the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Career, Technical and Adult Education, with the goal of supporting instruction of transferable 21 Century skills. The EdTech Maker Space professional development model brings educators together to learn technology tools and apply their learning by designing resources and activities that they can use and that can also be shared and adapted by other educators across the nation. It’s professional development with purpose! Learn more at the information session on April 29th at 1pm Eastern. |

When we built the Digital Skills Library, Jose Adorno, Lina Rahme, and Andrea Lypka joined Rachel Riggs to align digital skills activities in other languages. They shared that experience with World Education Services in their Mariam Assefa Fund Insights blog. We’re really glad to have worked with them and we hope that you, too, will contribute activities in other languages using the “Submit a Resource” button at the Digital Skills Library.
