Spotlighting Curriki for Educator Networking and Lesson Plan Sharing



Compiling the collective wisdom of educators everywhere.

By: Megan Hookey | Source: NRTA Live & Learn | THURSDAY, December 4, 2008




Welcome to Live & Learn Online!

I have the pleasure of working with educators from across the country and it’s clear that their practical experience developing lesson plans is invaluable.  It is for that reason that NRTA: AARP’s Educator Community and Curriki, a non-profit open source curriculum repository and community, joined forces to bring high quality learning resources to students and teachers around the world.  Current and former educators are encouraged to share their lessons plans and practices via the Curriki website?. The power of the internet and the collective wisdom of active and retired teachers are brought together by Curriki’s online site and educators across the globe are the beneficiaries!
 
The Curriki website also provides networking opportunities for a growing global community where you can give and get constructive feedback on curricula and teaching practices. There are also groups who collaborate on specific areas such as the arts, educational technology, health, language arts, science and many, many more. Feel free to visit the website and let your imagination run wild with what you can provide others!


With best regards,
Megan
