The Friday Institute for Educational Innovation, the US Department of Education, and the Consortium of School Networking (CoSN) have partnered to create a new community that supports all stakeholders going through digital transition within technology enabled learning environments. This new online community of practice, “epic-ed,” will offer the great resources, events, and connections with other practitioners nationally.
Epic-ed offers:
The Digital Transition Cycle - helps you navigate community resources, tools, and events organized around proven vision, planning, implementation, and assessment phases.
A School/District Profile Map - helps you locate other schools and districts to gain valuable insight about their challenges and successes.
Informal Learning Events - help you to expand and enrich your professional learning network with educators across the nation.
