Professional Online Community

I chose to join edweek.org as a way to grow professionally and learn about issues related to education, nationally and statewide. This site offers many opportunities to learn about what is happening in the world of education through its forums, online chats, an e-newsletter and other various mediums. It is hard to pinpoint a specific portion of this site that has been most helpful since it has such a variety of ways to disseminate information to professional educators. The forums and chats are a great way to ask questions and get answers from those who have experience in the field. The e-newsletter and magazine are wonderful for their scope of information they provive regarding current trends in education and controversies relating to changes in policies and practices. I have found this site to be extremely helpful and would recommend it to others in the education world.
