Our hopes for this blog

To the DEC EI SIG:

In response to members of our community who are not social media users (Facebook, Twitter), we created this EI SIG blog in which our members can access the same information, comment on posts, and interact with each other.

So far, we've been able to archive most of this year's Facebook posts into the blog, including the "Tuesday Tidbits" (featuring a DEC Recommended Practice) and "Friday Features" (summarizing an article primarily from the Young Exceptional Children journal, or another resource).

We hope you like the blog format. We will continue to communicate with you across the different channels (email listserv, Facebook, Twitter, blog) -- the blog is just another option!

We've received questions from members about ways to interact with each other and share information and resources. Remember, these online outlets will be more successful and effective the more you use them and the more you engage with the content and each other.

We are also developing other ideas for the blog such as inviting different guest authors so that you can hear other perspectives, and to encourage brainstorming and dialogue among our members. Stay tuned!

Please write us or comment below if you have other ideas for us to consider for this blog. In the end, we'd like the blog to be useful to YOU as an EI SIG participant.
