Come join us as we explore the ways in which the Central Maine Education Consortium (CMEC)-- an organization connecting higher education institutions, PK-12 schools, and community education stakeholders-- has addressed the challenges in education in Central Maine, including teacher workforce development, alternative education, arts integration, STEM, and other "special interest groups" (SIGs) formed through the CMEC. You'll have an opportunity to discuss or showcase your own innovative teaching techniques or joyful moments in education during this session!
