And the effects they are having on the classroom are far reaching. Educator, author and Learning Evangelist, Steven W. Anderson will discuss his own path to connectedness and how other educators and follow in his footsteps. He examines what qualities a Connected Educator exhibits and how every educator, in their own way, can use those qualities to extend learning for themselves and students as well.
