Mission and Vision

the purpose of "Teach Connected" is to enable teachers with the tools and ideas to effectively integrate technology into their classroom culture.  So often teachers are many steps behind students in the use of technology as a means of instruction.

if you are tired of fighting the battle of cell phones in the classroom, these ideas will be helpful to you.

if you want to integrate iPads, tablets, or other personal devices into the classroom, these ideas are great places to start

if you want to use social media as a professional development tool or a way to connect with your students in meaningful ways, this is a great place to explore.

most importantly, if you want to enable your students to become creators of content that helps them, their peers, AND you learn, dive in and lets get started.
