Sharing Best Practices

During the recent 2018 Teacher's Institute, having the opportunity once again for Adult Education Teachers to share their best practices was by far the most rewarding outcome. This forum brought educators together and let each shine and share and connect with colleagues from around the state. NM DELT was there in force, sharing our knowledge and learning from others. We are grateful to those who presented, attended and joined in our sessions with open minds and creativity. 

Here are some photos of DELT Team member Kristen Waring guiding participants as they create their very own websites using Google Sites.  Unfortunately, our other sessions were not captured on camera, yet they were well attended and well received! We hope you all enjoyed your time at the 2018 Teacher's Conference and ask that you share your favorite experience from the two day event, with photos if you have them as well. Let's give a big shout out to NMAEA for sponsoring this important event and thank all the educators who came out and shared their best practices!
