MLTI/eMINTS in Maine
(to learn more about MLTI/eMINTS click here)
MLTI,
the Maine Learning Technology Initiative, sponsored by the DOE,
and eMINTS National
Center have joined their efforts to launch a new initiative in
Maine to support teaching and help them enhance their practices by
integrating technology into their classrooms, implementing inquiry-based
lessons and constructivist principles.
Our goals are to increase
students' engagement, to have higher-rank thinking skills projects
and activities with them, and to help them become independent and
better-informed learners.
There are 9
regions in Maine currently participating in this project.
Region 7 includes Portland, Falmouth,
Gray and Westbrook schools.

for the Region 7 participants, and for anyone who wants to know more

The Region 7 Mentor/Trainer is Olga
