"Andrew - I would not see why not would be able to share.  I think the thought behind us posting to the RCEP site is that we share and as many educators use as possible.  I sent an email to Aimee."

Using Blogging to Support our Regional Partnerships

One of the great things about this Social Network is that we can each create our own blogs--periodic online journal entries where we can discuss what's going on in our Partnerships, ask questions, share information, and reflect on what we're learning. We can also share links to videos, podcasts, useful websites, etc. It really gives us a great opportunity to build a wealth of information that will, in turn, improve our collective ability to sustain our local and state-wide partnerships.
