Meeting Name:  ‘Get to know the Microsoft Educator Network’ by Megan Rademeyer

Summary: The Microsoft Educator Network (www.pil-network.com) is a great platform for teachers to stay in touch with trends in education, to get ideas for lessons that use technology, and to complete free online courses. In this webinar we will talk about how you can use the Microsoft Educator Network to:

  • download great tools including Autocollage, Photostory, Microsoft Maths and Photosynth and we will show examples of how some of these tools have been used to enhance lessons
  • get ideas and lesson plans from learning activities developed by winners at the Microsoft in Education Global Forum and how you can share your own Learning Activity
  • complete online professional development courses such as the “Teaching with Technology” course.

It is free to join the Microsoft Educator Network and all of the tools, resources and professional development on offer through this platform are free too.
