#INeLearn Archive

The #INeLearn hashtag is used for both asynchronous sharing and synchronous conversations. Include #INeLearn in your tweets if you want to share resources or questions with Indiana educators and school leaders. Asynchronously, the #INeLearn hashtag provides educators across the state of Indiana a central space for sharing. On Thursday evenings beginning at 8 CST/9 EST when you use the #INeLearn hashtag, you are joining a live conversation--the #INeLearn Twitter Chat. For one hour, we interact in real time having a virtual discussion.

    Truly blend learning. If it isn't enhanced (i.e. worksheets, but on computers!), then it needs to be changed or done w/o tech. #INeLearn

    R7 Keep growing #inelearn and the various learning networks across the state and beyond. Cross-pollination of ideas, questions, & solutions.
