Just saw your new Group and the focus on Special Education. Check out LeDerick's new video "Poetry and Adaptive Technology" and his story on his profile. He's doing great work, and isn't too far from you. Cheers, Kim
We're partnering with The Forum for Education and Democracy on their Will We Really Campaign, launched on February 6, and hope you'll take a few minutes to visit the campaign web site: www.willwereally.org! Our goal is to have 10,000 signatures by the 100th day of the new administration (coming up REAL soon!)
As you can see from the world map on our home page, we have a growing, eclectic community of individuals from across the globe -- from Brooklyn to Pakistan, from North Dakota to China. Thank you for taking the time to add your voice to that fascinating mix.
As you surf around the Network and its companion site, www.fivefreedoms.org, I urge you to share your voice throughout. Take our You Be The Judge First Amendment quiz (a new scenario every two weeks). Leave a comment on a fellow member's personal page and make a new contact. Upload a video to our gallery, or watch and react to one already there. Join (or start) a group or visit the Soapbox to contribute to (or start) a discussion. And invite others to join us.
In short, use your voice to co-create our online community :-)
Post a comment on my page anytime with questions or ideas. Thanks again!
